Ube & Macapuno Cake

A favourite of many Filipinos during celebrations and commonly appear on the dessert table. Ube, also known as Purple Yam is a root vegetable and Macapuno is known in English as Sport Coconut ....strangely enough the Engrish translation on the jar is "Gelatinous Mutant" - how odd..... 







Layers of chiffon sponge cake made with real ube and macapuno. Covered with more cream cheese and ube crumble and decorated with piped cream cheese - yummmmoo!!!
