Ube cake

Ube cake is a special cake that has a purple color and is made with a very special ingredient called ube. Ube is a type of sweet potato that comes from the Philippines.

First, we need to bake the cake in the oven. We mix flour, sugar, eggs and a bunch of other things that make the cake yummy. We then cook it in the oven until it is soft and fluffy.

Next, we mix the ube into the cake mixture. Ube is a special kind of sweet potato that has a purple color and tastes very sweet. We mix it into the cake batter to give it flavor and color.

Finally, we frost the cake with a special frosting called buttercream. Buttercream is made with butter, powdered sugar, and milk. It is very creamy and delicious. We spread the frosting on the top and sides of the cake and then decorate it with sprinkles or other fun toppings.

Now it's time to enjoy our delicious and colorful ube cake!
