ube cake is basically a chiffon cake with violet food coloring in it. use the powdered food color, as the liquid unstabilize the cake mixture. then make about 3 cakes. fill the cake with a filling of your choice. then coat the stacked cakes with softened ube ice cream. then put in a blender the 3rd cake and make into a crumb, which you then cover the cake up. thus, ube cake have that felty look from the crumbs. voila! ube cake! i think at first ube cake was made from real ube, but i think it made it heavy so they just omitted the ube from the cake and use food coloring instead.

What Is Ube

it is a species of Yam, a tuberous root vegetable like potatoes.. Ube (or ubi) is the Filipino word for this purple yam. It contains pigments that gives its violet color.
In the Philippines, ube is cooked with sugar and eaten as a sweetened dessert or jam.. also used as a flavor in cakes and ice creams, all are purple in color. really delicious..
