Tropics Ube Halaya (Purple Yam Jam)

This jam is...well, the jam! I not only use this when making fresh bread but also as part of an ingredient when making ube and cream cheese stuff cookies.! Great flavor.

Delicious! Used it in an ube mochi cake. Highly recommend!

Bought for making mochi pancakes, followed a link on the recipe page. They were awesome.

Tasted as it should good.

Used to make a yummy Ube cheesecake for my ube loving son!

Had a really hard time finding Ube Jam in stores and was told by some store clerks that there has been a shortage so was really happy to find it on Amazon. Yes its more expensive than it would be in stores but the cookies I make with the jam are 100% worth the cost. The glass came unopened/sealed and in proper packaging where there was no leaking or broken jar which is great as food being shipped is always a risk.

I purchased this product with caution, after reading the reviews prior. Never again. The jar came with the seal slightly ripped, and a yellowish stained outer wrapper. The Ube itself smells similar to mildew, which is not expected. And on top of it, the jam contains a banned ingredient, red 3, which is labeled not for consumption.Since it is a food product, there are no returns on Amazon, so I'm writing this for anyone on the brink of buying the cheaper option - don't!

Knowing that this is our daughter-in-law’s favorite jam, I was able to buy the jam as part of her Xmas gift.
