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

This product is potent. It will definitely stain your hands or dishes if you use it in porous containers. It is not the easiest to use, as the pouring spout does not have a great way to stop product from flowing. It is difficult to measure out amounts for it, and every time I have used it, I have had to rinse off the bottle because of how much ube extract falls onto the bottle. It is very flavorful and good for adding ube flavorings to products like baked goods, puddings, cakes, ice cream, and so forth. The small bottle is not a detriment because a little goes a long way, making it a great value.

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!

Used it to make ube halaya, previously did not have any for my first time making it and it absolutely stepped up the flavor and especially color. Very small bottle but that's all you need because of how potent it is! Be careful not to spill it though, its very thin and can leave some super hard to remove stains. They're not impossible to remove but its a very high quality extract that has a LOT of color in it.

This stuff is great for my coffees! I add it to my milk and use a skewer to add it in. It doesn’t take much at all to get the flavor you want. Too much will taste quite bitter. The purple color is a plus! It would be ideal if there was a dropper for this, as when you open it it will get everywhere and stains. But I see me having this for a long time!

For the price, the quality is impressive. Bottle arrived sealed and in good condition. Would definitely purchase again.

Artificial flavoring that is clearly ALL chemicals! Horrible after taste, I used my finger tip to take a little taste and it immediately stained my finger tip. Can only imagine what my insides would look like if I ingested more. The dyes, and chemicals can't be good for you. Was planning on using it as a frosting flavor for sweet rice dessert but I'd much rather used pure vanilla extract. Wish I could return this. I'm just going to throw it away.

My grandkids and I used this to make Ube Cookies after they saw Ube cookies on a kids show. They pestered me incessantly. I knew nothing about baking with ube but I found out this is a terrific product and we did not need to use any additional purple food color.

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.
