It can be prepared baked or simply refrigerated. Like other ube desserts in the Philippines, it is characteristically purple in color.

Queso De Bola
Edam ( nl, Edammer, ) is a semi-hard cheese that originated in the Netherlands, and is named after the town of Edam in the province of North Holland. Edam is traditionally sold in flat-ended spheres with a pale yellow interior and a coat, or rind, of red paraffin wax. Edam ages and travels well, and does not spoil; it only hardens. These qualities (among others) made it the world's most popular cheese between the 14th and 18th centuries, both at sea and in remote colonies.History of Edam Cheese Edam.com.

Ube Ice Cream
Ube ice cream is a Filipino ice cream flavor prepared using ube (purple yam) as the main ingredient. This ice cream is often used in making the dessert halo-halo. History Due to its vivid violet color and mildly sweet and nutty taste, ube has been a staple of Filipino desserts, most notably ube halaya. The earliest recorded use of ube in ice cream was in a recipe from 1922, when ice cream's introduction to Filipino culture during the American occupation (as the local adaptation sorbetes) led to new flavors such as mango, pinipig and melon. The recipe called for mashed ube, milk, sugar and crushed ice. During that time, ice cream was also hand-churned in a ''garapinyera'', a manually operated ice cream mixer. Ube ice cream has risen in popularity outside the Philippines, due to its use by Filipino immigrants in restaurants (often with halo-halo) and Trader Joe's line of ube products, its vivid violet color and the spread of its pictures on social media.

Crema De Fruta
''Crema de fruta'' (Spanish: "fruit cream") is a traditional Filipino fruitcake made with layers of sponge cake, sweet custard or whipped cream, gelatin or ''gulaman'' (agar), and various preserved or fresh fruits, including mangoes, pineapples, cherries, and strawberries. It is usually served during the Christmas season. It has multiple variations, ranging from changes in the fruits used to the addition of ingredients like jam, sago, condensed milk, and others. An icebox cake variant of ''crema de fruta'' also exists, which is much easier to prepare. It is traditionally made with ladyfingers ('' broas'') instead of sponge cake, with layers of custard and fruits. A modern variant of this is the ''crema de mangga'' or "mango float", which uses graham crackers, whipped cream, and ripe Carabao mangoes.

Brazo De Mercedes
''Brazo de Mercedes'' is a traditional Filipino meringue roll with a custard filling typically dusted with powdered sugar. It is a type of '' pianono''. Origins Although popularly simply translated as "Mercedes' Arm", it actually means "Arm of Our Lady of Mercy" in Spanish, from Nuestra Señora de las Mercedes, a common devotional title for Mary, mother of Jesus. The dessert dates back to the Spanish colonial period. It is one of the desserts believed to have been the result of the repurposing of the discarded egg yolks from the use of egg whites for mortar and plaster in Spanish-Filipino colonial architecture. Description Unlike other types of Filipino '' pianonos'' which are made with rolled chiffon cake, chiffon or sponge cakes, ''brazo de Mercedes'' is made from meringue and thus does not use flour. The meringue is made from egg whites, cream of tartar, and granulated sugar. The filling is traditionally custard made from egg yolks, sugar, and milk cooked in low heat in a ...

Ube Cake
Ube cake is a traditional Filipino chiffon cake or sponge cake made with ube halaya (mashed purple yam). It is distinctively vividly purple in color, like most dishes made with ube in the Philippines. Preparation Ube cake is generally prepared identically to mamón (chiffon cakes and sponge cakes in Filipino cuisine), but with the addition of mashed purple yam to the ingredients. It is typically made with flour, eggs, sugar, a dash of salt, baking powder, vanilla, oil, milk, and cream of tartar. The resulting cake is pink to purple in color (depending on the amount of ube used) and slightly denser and moister than regular chiffon cakes. Ube cake typically has a whipped cream, cream cheese, or buttercream frosting, which may also be flavored with ube or coconut. Variations Like mamón, ube cake can be modified readily into other recipes.

Sans Rival
''Sans rival'' is a Filipino dessert cake made of layers of buttercream, meringue and chopped cashews. Its name means "unrivaled” in French. The cake may be decorated, left plain or garnished with pistachios. The cake's origins are disputed. One source claims the recipe has its roots in the French dacquoise, while Lucy Torres Gomez, writing in ''The Philippine Star'', claims that the cake is descended from the ''tarta imperial rusa'', the Spanish adaptation of a Russian cake that was popular with the Russian Imperial Family. A similar, smaller version of this recipe is called a silvana.

Mango float or ''crema de mangga'' is a Filipino icebox cake dessert made with layers of ladyfingers (''broas'') or graham crackers, whipped cream, condensed milk, and ripe carabao mangoes.
