Ube Basque burnt cheesecake
Ube powder goes into a Basque burnt cheesecake so the custard is violet under a black-brown top. You want the middle to wobble. Fridge it before you cut.
Ube · USES U01
Dirty ube latte
Ube powder in cold milk, espresso dumped through ice. A dirty ube latte, not the latte mix stirred as the bag suggests.
How to make it

This recipe uses ube. Read what ube is.
- 250ml very cold whole milk

Fill a tall glass with ice and pour in the violet milk.
- 03
Pull a double espresso and pour it slowly over the back of a spoon so it sits as a dark layer, then stir if you want it dirty all the way through.

Also from the kitchen
Ube flan that wobbles
Ube powder colours and flavours a classic flan. Burnt sugar in the tin, custard on top, water bath, then a flip. It should wobble.
Black Sesame Iced Ube Latte
Make two iced ube lattes with Pandoyo Ube Latte Mix, cold milk and a quick black sesame syrup. Toasting the seeds gives the drink a nutty edge that balances the sweet coconut and ube flavours.
Iced Brown Sugar Pandan Tea Latte
Make one tall iced drink by combining Pandoyo Pandan Latte Mix with strong black tea, milk and brown sugar. A quick shake gives the latte a light froth while plenty of ice keeps it crisp.
Pandan Pineapple Oven Pancake
Make a light oven pancake with Pandoyo Pandan Waffle Mix, caramelised pineapple and coconut milk. Bake it in a hot frying pan, then finish with lime and toasted coconut.
Ube Coconut Waffle-Mix Snack Cake
Turn Ube Waffle Mix into a soft midweek snack cake. The batter is baked in a square tin under a quick coconut topping, then cooled and cut into neat pieces.
Pandan Coconut Cookie Bars
Pandan coconut cookies, baked as a slab and cut into bars. One 400g bag of Pandoyo Pandan Cookie Mix. Desiccated coconut and brown sugar are extras, not in the bag. The dough is slightly sticky. Press it flat. Cut only when the slab is cool.
Pandan Coconut Milk Poke Cake
Bake Pandoyo Pandan Cake Mix in a tin, poke it while warm, and pour over coconut milk mixed with condensed milk. Chill until the crumb drinks the soak. This is not the bag cake as directed.
Pandan Cookie Ice Cream Sandwiches
Bake Pandoyo Pandan Cookie Mix into even rounds, then sandwich a scoop of vanilla ice cream between two cookies and freeze until firm. The mix is the cookie. The ice cream is from the freezer aisle.
Pandan Lime Drizzle Loaf
Bake the 400g bag of Pandoyo Pandan Cake Mix in a loaf tin with lime zest in the batter. While it is hot, spoon over a lime and coconut drizzle so the crust stays sharp and the crumb stays fragrant.
Ube Banana Crumb Loaf
Mash ripe bananas into Pandoyo Ube Cake Mix and bake it as a loaf. A quick brown sugar crumb goes on top. The bananas are from the fruit bowl. They are not in the bag.
Ube Cookie Crumble Sundae
Bake a tray from Pandoyo Ube Cookie Mix. Break some cookies into warm crumbs, leave others whole, and layer them with vanilla ice cream. The mix is the cookie. The ice cream is from the supermarket.
Ube Cream Cheese Swirl Traybake
Spread Pandoyo Ube Cake Mix in a tin, then ribbon through a cream cheese mixture and bake until the swirl sets. The mix is the crumb. The cream cheese is an extra you add, not something already in the bag.
Ube White Chocolate Skillet Cookie
Press Pandoyo Ube Cookie Mix into a skillet, fold through chopped white chocolate, and bake until the edges set and the middle stays soft. White chocolate is a serving extra. It is not in the mix.
Pandan Pear and Coconut Crumble Cake
Turn pandan waffle mix into a relaxed Sunday cake. Firm pears sit over a soft yoghurt batter, while a coconut crumble adds a crisp, buttery top.
Toasted Rice Iced Ube Latte
Toast jasmine rice in a dry pan, then steep it in milk to make a nutty base. Mix Pandoyo Ube Latte Mix with hot water, add the cooled rice milk and serve over plenty of ice.
Ube Coconut Crumble Traybake
Turn Pandoyo Ube Waffle Mix into a soft, lightly buttery traybake. The batter comes together in one bowl, while a quick brown sugar and coconut crumble adds a crisp top. Cut it into squares once cool and keep them covered for tomorrow.
Warm Pandan Ginger Latte
Make one large mug by steeping fresh ginger in milk, then whisking it with Pandoyo Pandan Latte Mix. Brown sugar adds a soft caramel note, while salt keeps the drink balanced.
Pandan tres leches
Pandan powder goes into both the sponge and the three-milk soak. You leave it in the fridge overnight so the crumb drinks every drop. Not a mix baked as directed.
Pandan chilli oil noodles
Pandan powder goes into a chilli oil you pour over noodles. Instant noodles are fine. The powder is the unexpected bit in a bowl people already film.
Pandan powder crispy rice squares
Pandan powder for rice, as crispy squares. Two teaspoons of Pandoyo Pandan Leaf Powder go into the marshmallow after the pan comes off the heat. The green stays in the glue around puffed rice. This is not a pot of steamed rice, and it is not cake mix.
