Pinipig Ice Cream?
Selecta’s Pinipig So Munchy So Crunchy Chocolate Ice Cream… A stick of ice cream with a chocolate shell studded with pinipig crunchies… What is pinipig? Immature rice grains that are pounded until they are flat and then are toasted. They are often mistaken for rice crispies.
Purple Ice Cream?
Passionfruit? Grape? Honey Lavender? Nope! Purple Ice Cream has to be none other than the UBE flavor of the Philippines!
UBE (oo-beh) is Purple Yam… a root crop you dig from under the ground.
