Butterfly Ube Flavoring Extract 2 oz – Purple Yam Essence for Baking, Lattes, Ice Cream, Jam & Halaya Recipes

This ube flavoring adds a nice sweet purple yam flavor to drinks and desserts and works well in recipes like lattes, baked goods, and homemade treats. It also gives food a vibrant purple color, which makes everything look more fun and appealing. The flavor is good overall, though I wish it tasted a little stronger and more natural. Still, it’s easy to use, mixes well, and is a convenient option for adding ube flavor at home.

This extract is so tasty and colorful, perfect for adding more flavor to my ube halaya or on it's own in frosting, drinks, etc.

Great product!

I got this brand because several articles and recipes said this was the best tasting one. It does taste good and is priced right. However, I learned very quickly that the extract will stain fingers and dish towels. I was very disappointed to look at the ingredient label and see this doesn't contain any actual ube, but "artificial sweet potato flavor" instead.

I absolutely love this ube extract! It adds the perfect rich, nutty, and slightly vanilla-like flavor that makes traditional Filipino desserts taste authentic. I’ve used it in ube halaya, ube cake, leche flan, and even pancakes—and every time, it enhances both the taste and color beautifully. The extract has a deep purple hue, so a little goes a long way. Just a few drops are enough to give your recipes that signature ube color without overpowering the dish. It also blends well into batters, doughs, and frostings without separating. One of the things I appreciate most is that it doesn’t have a fake or overly artificial taste like some other brands. It’s smooth, flavorful, and truly captures that nostalgic ube aroma. If you enjoy baking or cooking with ube, this extract is a pantry essential. I’ll definitely be repurchasing!

First off, the bottle is secured weird and there are no instructions on how to open it. I was tired and just wanted to try it so I cut the top of with scissors and I screamed as the liquid came squirting out, all over my counter, my floor and my hands.. the stuff is very dark and does not wipe off readily. I hope it comes out cause it stained everything!! The consistency reminds me of hair dye.. I tasted a small drop and found it revolting. There is an eventual aftertaste of ube but the initial flavor is unbearable and tastes chemical.. I know ube is supposed to be bitter but this doesn't taste right..I hope I can get my money back and the stains out...

No questions asked, purchase it! I was looking for Ube flavoring since it’s my favorite in any dessert or latte. I purchase these lattes for about the same price as the flavoring. This little bottle will last forever. I used about 10 drops for my latte and it’s exactly like the cafe I frequently visit. It is very concentrated and even the purple color showed up in my drink after adding my black coffee. I’m excited to try it in my ube brownies and any other recipes. It does stain and the bottle is very difficult to open. It spilled on my floor and almost took 30 mins of scrubbing to get out. Other than that, I love it

My wife introduced me to ube ice cream years back. I decided to surprise her by making homemade ube ice cream. It turned out so good.
