Ube, which is considered a staple in the Filipino community, is often mistaken with taro, they have distinct textures that separate these two vegetables. Ube, a purple yam, provides a sweet taste and nutty texture, while the Okinawan sweet potato, provides a creamy texture. The discrepancy that the Okinawan sweet potato has is that it is a light purple color compared to the dark purple Ube portrays. Ube is also rich in nutrients such as Vitamin A, C, potassium, and more. Also, Ube is considered to have the highest antioxidants source in the yam family. Ube is well-acclaimed for the aesthetically pleasing purple characteristic that has been made to decorate various desserts like
 * pancakes/waffles
 * ice cream
 * doughnuts
 * pies
 * halo halo
 * empanadas
 * macarons

Ube portrays the narrative that it is used only for desserts, however, snacks have become a component of ube like baked ube potato chips. Ube characterizes its usage in many various forms like
 * powder
 * jam
 * extract.
