PSA: Want to try an Ube roll????



For you non-Filipinos (and Filipinos that never had the chance to grow up with the stuff) I’d highly recommend that you buy them at a Red Ribbon. Red Ribbon is a Filipino bakery, and are usually in States/Cities with a high Asian demographic (the link directs you to a US store locator). Like honestly, buying that shit at a Red Ribbon might be the most Filipino thing you could do (I had a Grandma that knew everyone in her Red Ribbon by name???). Most Filipinos wouldn’t even know how to bake one because we buy that shit at a Red Ribbon and that shit is literally everywhere in the Philippines.

Other desserts I’d highly recommend for the true Pinoy childhood™ experience:

^There’s Ube ice cream in this one!!!

Don’t be discouraged to walk in if you’re the only non-Filipino in the store!!! Filipino restaurants frequently close down, which has created a kind of discouraging environment among Filipinos regarding food and businesses. Every Filipino store would love to know that they’re appreciated by the rest of the community!
