    5.0 out of 5 stars good with baking recipies

    B.C.S. · December 12, 2025

    works well with most recipies. I used it to make ube "pandesal" a quick adian bread. turned out perfect. recommend to use it ube extract as well

    1.0 out of 5 stars Pop rock texture doesn't go away with baking!!

    S. · January 19, 2026

    I bought this to turn into a paste and add to my cookie recipe. In order to turn this into a paste you are suppose to add boiling water, stir, then let sit. Even after multiple hot water additions, stirring, and waiting the paste still had the little 'pop rock' textured pieces. I was hoping this would bake out as ube powder doesn't take its flavor until it is baked. However, the cookies were a bust. You could still see and feel the little ube rocks throughout and the taste was not good.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Works great if you follow your recipe

    Great product for making Ube ice cream. You must follow your recipe's instructions for using Ube. This is dehydrated be, so generally you need to reconstitute it by boiling, then strain it through fine mesh, or yes, it will leave your baked product grainy. If you're looking to just add color to your cooking, I'd suggest Ube extract, since it's in a liquid form already.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Ube, but not fine powder

    M. · January 20, 2026

    This brand uses real Ube, the only issue is the granular is rather large to use as “powder”.* I used my vitamix to pulverize the granules into fine powder. It’s more effective in absorbing moisture when using in my recipes. I also notice the aroma is more present after it’s in fine powder form.I do bake the items that i use this for and it works well.Since it’s been difficult to find real Ube powder in America (Most brands market Ube but it’s actually another purple potato tuber rather than the purple Ube yam) I decided to just stick with this brand and just take the extra step to make it into fine powder.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing for boba beverage

    B.B. · June 14, 2022

    I gave this product a mostly neutral rating because, honestly, it's the first ube I've ever tried so maybe they're all like this. I was hoping to make a brilliantly colored boba tea, but when mixed with sugar and hot water, the hue is a muddy brownish purple. To make matters worse, the powder doesn't actually dissolve, so you're left with a watery mashed potato-like residue as everything settles to the bottom even after straining out the larger chunks. The flavor is what I expected - sort of mildly sweet potato-ish. Since I don't want to waste it, I'll give it a try in a baked good to see if it's any better, but if you're looking for boba ingredients, this probably won't be ideal. I'm was hoping to avoid the artificial colors and flavorings in the bottled ube extract, but I'll be trying that next to get the boba aesthetic I'm looking for.

    5.0 out of 5 stars If you want to make it work for coffee, mix it in & let it absorb the fluid! CREAMY!

    C. · January 18, 2025

    I knew it would be more "grainy" from the start. When I mixed it in with almond milk for coffee in a blender, it got creamy and thick. I think that was perfect! The flavor was quite strong for only 2 tablespoons in 2 cups of sweetened almond milk creamer for 4 cups of coffee. I wish they would sell a pound of this and add an Ube flavoring extract to it, a two-ingredient combo. Without extract, the flavor is strong enough but I think it would be cool if they had an extra-flavored version of this. I'll take all the ube flavor I can get. This flavor is getting popular in coffee shops. I like the Jans brand, they sell it in my local Ross store, and has been a quality reliable brand from overseas.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Sucks butt

    L. · December 7, 2025

    The media could not be loaded. Isn't as advertised. Definitely not a fine powder shown in the picture. Texture is crystal like and it doesnt dissolve or soften much in water. Doubt id be able to use this in my baking. Waste of my time and sucks butt. FALSE ADVERTISING!!!!Edit: I have decided to grind it down to powder myself

    5.0 out of 5 stars Ignore the bad reviews, they were looking for an Ube Latte Mix

    m. · December 6, 2023

    This packet of Ube (Purple Yam) powder is legitimately so good. People complain that it doesn’t dissolve, well they probably were looking for a latte mix for a boba milk tea drink, and for that purpose this is NOT the product you need. This ube powder is for making rich thick jams like Ube Halaya, which is what I made with it. One small packet like this made 2 8oz jars of Ube milk jam for me. I simmered a cup of heavy cream (you can use half & half if you dont have heavy cream) and melted butter (about 5 tbsp) in a small pot, over medium heat I stirred this packet of Ube powder in and it started getting thick as the cream was evaporating, then I mixed in a can of condensed milk, and a couple of squirts of Ube extract/Ube flavored food coloring, kept it on medium heat and kept stirring until it was thick and goopy, than I let it cool and put it into glass jars (8oz size Ball jars with metal lid which is available here on Bolo). I use this thick milk jam on English muffins or a spoon of it served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or just eat a spoonful of it like how some people would snack on a spoon of peanut butter. If you’re an Ube lover, definitely get this, and if you love the Ube color, make sure to also buy a small bottle of the Ube extract/Ube flavored food color gel to make your jam a bright and deep purple color.
