Best local sweets 😋 “Ube Cheesecake tarts” is best size for bite!

This place was AMAZING! I was craving a nice cold desert because of the hot weather and I came upon UBAE! The soft serve was amazing and had a nice satisfying taste! I was lucky enough to meet the owner and he was such a kind person. This business is customer oriented and makes sure the satisfy your needs. I purchased the cookies and the creme puffs and they were scrumptious!!! 10/10 would recommend again.

Love the desserts here. We bought an insulated bag to bring our treats home to Kauai

They have soft serve now!!! Dairy-free!One of our must-go places in Oahu. The soft-serve comes as ube or ube-pandan swirl. Along with the classic ube cheesecake we also tried the Flanbae (classic flan on top of ube cake) and it ube-twist. Ended up having to go back for the soft serve because its so good.Roll cake was a little on the sweet side, and the ube cream puff wasnt as strong on ube flavor as other items, but thats just personal taste. They were still really good, just not our favorites.

Eat cold . Very good .

Exploring the eats on Oahu, great place for some sweets. Tucked away in shopping center, reasonable prices. Ubae is here so enjoy!

This was my first time in Hawaii and I wasnt sure if they had good Ube places. This place proved to be otherwise. From their soft cookies to their tasty ice cream, everything satiated my cravings. 5/5 for me

Easy to find in a popular shopping center with ample parking. The pandwan (i think) flavor swirled with ube ice cream is so good. We got tarts & a dozen cookies as well. Easy in and out service

Extremely homey and family oriented shop that provides you with the best ube experience in Hawaii. You won’t be disappointed I promise

A must stop while in Oahu, got introduced to them from a friend and made sure I went to pick up some crinkle cookies. Some of the best ube cookies Ive had, since Im back home now... Ill definitely be ordering some online! Thanks

I didnt taste the real ube or purple yam in Filipino authentic way of cooking. Its good but I wont go back and fall in line for it. My kid loves it because they didnt know the difference.

Aloha! This place has best sweets and goods. Ube is the best desert wvwr! Staff friendly and helpful.

Ubae bae:Ube before anything else before anyone else. Everything is a hit. Cookie is better crumbled into the soft serve as a topping than as a stand alone cookie. Flan was so gooooooood.

Absolutely divine!!! A definite go-to for all of your sweet ube cravings.

Their variety of assorted cheesecake, amazingly delicious specially the swirl ice cream,soft silky smooth of goodness. I cant get enough of it.

Their cookies are so delicious and their ube cream puff so ono. you gotta give um a try. They make great desserts to bring to parties too.

My taste buds have changed from decades of eating sweet desserts to now favor savory food items. However, I was lured to this shop by a BOGO free offer for a 4 oz ube cheesecake through the Five Stars marketing platform.Upon entry, the counter girl greeted us with a smile as I mentioned the BOGO offer which was loaded onto my account. She pointed me to the Five Stars keypad where I entered my phone number then went about browsing their display case of purpleness.For those who may be unfamiliar with ube, its actually a regally purple-colored sweet potato. Pronounced ooh-bey. In fact, its pronunciation is boldly emblazoned in a purple neon sign on one of this bakerys walls. (See photo). Its a mildly sweet and not too starchy sweet potato that is used most commonly by the Filipino community in desserts. The desserts can be made from fresh cooked grated ube or from powder, dependent upon its application.Luckily, we had just eaten lunch so I didnt go hog wild ordering the mouthwatering ube products. I did get the BOGO free offer for a 4-ounce ube cheese cake and 6 ube crinkle cookies that Ill pair with a cup of hot black coffee or a Cortado.The crinkle cookies are light with its somewhat cake-like brownie textured center. But, its ube flavor isnt particularly intense. As for the ube cheese cake, its cream cheese filling is rich and creamy but I couldnt taste ube flavor even though it was vividly purple. The graham cracker crust was crumbly and not too sweet to distract from the cream cheese flavor. I was a bit worried if our teeth or tongue would be stained purple from these treats because we just got our teeth cleaned by our dentist. Well, no staining occurred.We liked their ube products but its not something that we crave of would indulge in frequently.

Tried the ube cheesecake tarts a few times. I finally tasted a hint of lemon/zest in it. Ube looks good with the purple color but doesnt have any flavor by itself.

Employees were so nice, the desserts are delicious. The establishment is very clean, only a minimal of 3 ppl allowed inside at a time. Masks worn, awesome little jewel

Awesome place. My family loved it so much!

I absolutely love UBAE❗(Ube = Purple Yam)Let me start with: You can never go wrong with ube cheesecake!!Everything here its absolutely amazing!They offer the traditional ube cheesecake, ube cheesecake tarts and ube crinkle cookies.The ube cheesecake and cheesecake tarts have a divine taste, I love the texture.The ube crinkle cookies, the presentation is just stunning. That shade of purple with the frost! 😍 It taste just as amazing as it looks! The cookie was nice and soft.I cant wait to visit again!#TTeatz

Try everything, its all good! My. Favorite is the shortbread tarts. Soo yummy!

Ube (purple sweet potato) cheesecake tarts from ubae hawaii in Honolulu are delicious! Creamy ube cheesecake in a buttery tart shell, love the hint of salt 💜😍💜😍

Terrible service. Heavy set lady was late opening at 9 and unlocked the door and walked away without even greeting us. Not what I call good business. Sense. If she hates her job she should do something else. I’ll spend my money at the Ine Factory instead

I will definitely comeback here when I visit Oa’hu again... I love the ube concept💜

Ube tarts were amazing. Friendly and helpful service was a plus. Next time I visit will be ready with an insulated bag so I can buy extra to take back with me on my travels back home.

Delicious dessert spot. Nice change from the regular ice cream

Walking around Honolulu, we saw a lot of desserts that were made with Ube, a purple sweet potato. Curious as to what it may taste like, we searched for the best Ube desserts in town and found @ubae_hawaii. First up was their Ube Crinkle Cookie, which features a soft and chewy texture that complimented the Ube flavor really well. We also tried their Cheesecake tarts, and were delighted with its excellent shortbread crust. Purple foods isn’t something you find very often, and we were glad to have been able to have some while visiting Honolulu!

Delicious ube goods here!! The staff is super friendly. Love it here!

Its a little bit overpriced but I like the taste of it personally! It does not have strong ube flavor. If you have extra time in Honolulu then maybe check it out, otherwise you can safely skip it. And yes there is no seating. Parking can also be hard so be aware.

Buy the drinks next door...same selection for almost half off.

Everything is amazing! This was my first introduction to ube and Im hooked

Let just say you must try the:CookiesCheese cakeIce cream both way with and without swirlsThis please is amazing!!!!!

Ube Pandan ice cream was at the perfect sweetness and you can really taste the ube :D I wish I could bring some back home to AZ.

Horrible service. they don’t open on time and the staff talks back rudely to your questions

Came in to try thier soft serve. Didnt know it just came in a cup. It was ok. I got the cookie before too. that was too sweet. The stars is because the price is pretty high. For the small portion

Wow. So good.

I highly recommend this place. Their pandan and ube soft serve is really good. Their ube cheesecake melts in the mouth and their ube crinkles are not bad either. Im so glad we discovered this place.

Cute shop. Yummy Ube desserts. My favorite is the Ube cheesecakes in the tin. The tarts are also yummy too. Enjoy coming here for a few Ube treats.

The ice cream is legit!! Would come back here!!

Enjoyed the ube and pandan soft serve (great for ppl who are lactose-free). Also got a dozen ube swirl cookies and mini ube cheesecakes 😋

Toooo sweet to me.

Delicious. Perfect for omiyage when going outer island too.

I visited from out of state, very excited to try this. I got one cheesecake and a cookie. Both were good. The cheesecake was smooth and the cookie had a nice mild crunch on the outside while being soft on the inside. The only other thing being sold at the time was the tart, so I assume they’re out of some of their other items for now.When I went it looked like they were maybe doing some reconstructing. Unfortunately, no seating to enjoy my snacks. Their current limited hours made it so I almost didn’t get to try them before leaving the state.Good desserts/snacks though. Just prepare to eat it elsewhere.

We love ube more than anything — that’s why we can’t fall in love with this place.We were so stoked to try their items. I’ve had their cheese cake, mini tarts, Fran, mamon, and cookies, but they just don’t have enough ube flavor. If I close my eyes, I can’t really tell that I’m eating ube desserts. Amongst what we tried, mamon had the strongest ube halaya flavor, but even with that I wish I could taste more ube! I detected some textures of ube from cookie, but the sugar on the cookie overpowered the ube. Fran was the worst and neither of us couldn’t say it’s ube fran, the flavor of the sponge cake was non existent.You can buy Trader Joe’s ube ice cream and pancake mix and still can taste great ube flavors. Each item from Ubae is not cheap at all, so why waste money? Our impression is that Uabe is insta-pretty place/tourists trap. When I have ube cravings next time, I’ll turn to Magnolia’s ube ice cream or get Tiger Ube from Nio for much better experience.

OMG! The best! I wish I bought more to take home with me to Chicago! The tarts & cheesecakes were amazing! This is a must go-to if youre in the island!

Great service and soft serve. Chanel exudes great friendly customer service. I go there weekly.

The desserts themselves are good, just a little too sweet. However whats most disappointing is that they taste nothing like real ube. When we visited southeast Asia we got to taste it and this place doesnt come close to it. The cheese cake is literally just regular flavor with purple dye.

Amazing Ube deserts! Their tarts and cheesecake is my favorite. They have lots of ube options, the staff is super friendly and helpful, quick service and delicious treats. This is my go-to for my ube cravings!

Very small shop with a counter to purchase ubae cookies, cheesecake and regular cake. Echoing what other reviewers said, the cookie and tart didn’t taste much like ubae.

I love UBAE! We had their tarts and cheesecake, and both were delicious! The only problem I encountered here is parking.

Cute ubae shop. We liked the creamy cheesecake and cookies. I think a bit overpriced but I’d still recommend checking it out if you’ll be in Honolulu. :)

Wanted to try Ive cheesecake tart but they sell only 8 pieces per tray and too many for me. But a customer next to me was praising it so it must be good! Bought ube cheesecake in a cup. Thick and creamy cheese, beautiful deep purple colour and tasted very good. I shall go back for more of it and to get cookies and tarts as well.

All is good, but I HAVE to get the Ubae tarts. Oh and the softserv swirl too. ;->

Delicious cookies, ice cream, cheese cake and tarts, not a big variety to choose from and no seating, cookies sell out fast call them before you go to make sure they didn’t run out

Delish!!!’

We were visiting Oahu and excited to try out this place as I love ube. I bought the soft serve, cheesecake tarts and the crinkle cookie. Soft serve is good but I would like it with strong ube flavored. Not a fan of the cheesecake tarts as the cream cheese overpowered the ube tasted. Didnt try the cookie but hubby likes it. Overall I didnt get the hype.

The icecream and cheese cake was very good, very worth trying!

Ube goodness

Great desserts & they have a Street Fighter 2 arcade in the shop you can play for FREE!!!

Nice cheese cake, cheese tart and cookies. Very creamy. Just a bit pricy and the location seems not very convenient without own transportation. But overall it’s worth to try.

My co-worker JC told about a place where they do incredible things with the UBE. Good news...He was right. Bad news....I just started my diet last month. One cookie and one cheesecake limit this week. Cant wait till next week!

The cookies were really delicious and soft but didnt really have a strong ube flavor. Also got a cheesecake. It was good also, but again, no obvious ube flavor. The crumbly crust was fantastic though.We were kind if disappointed overall. We wanted to get some tarts but you can only buy them in packs of 8.

I couldnt stop eating these cookies..

Awesome! Great Service! Yummy Stuff!

We are ube fans and decided to try the cheesecake with graham cracker crust, cookies, and tarts. Loved it all and you can really taste the ube. Busy parking lot but worth making a stop. This holds up to the fancy ube desserts in the Philippines and Los Angeles.

Loved all the different variety of ube.

They are freaking good...,..... Stop reading this and eat some

Everyone comes here for the cookie but!!! The cheesecake is the real winner. The ube flavor isn’t as strong in the cookie compared to the cheesecake. The cheesecake was the best ube cheesecake I’ve ever had, it’s almost like an ube ice cream. Also the purple color here is strong, you know for sure it’s ube. I felt like after the cheesecake, my whole body was going to turn purple...and into ube.

Good

So happy they’re finally opening a store! They haven’t officially opened yet, but had a popup on Nov. 12 and will hopefully have more before their grand opening. For those who know the area, it’s across from Young’s Fish Market and Kam Bakery.

Soooo good. Friendly staff and the soft serve is amazing just like the cookies and tarts

This incredible purple confection is da BOMB! I dare anyone NOT to get addicted MY personale favorite, the Crinkle cookie!

Tastes yummy!! Ill give it 3 stars for now since selection is limited. I didnt wanna drive to Wahiawa to the other Ube place since i was only visiting oahu for a day.

I personally love their ubae tart ❤️

If you love Ube, this is the place to go. They have use tarts, ube cheesecake and ube crinkle cookies.Love the crinkle cookies, they’re so soft!

Busy place

Best ubae in Hawaii😍😍😍

Ube before anything else!

On the expensive but tarts taste good

Never before tried cheesecake they tasted great!

Chk it out kind of pricey but ono

Best ever

Yummy.

Delectable cheesecake!

Good tarts

Yummy!!

UBAE, kind of says it all. Love this place. If you visit our beautiful state you must try this delicious goodness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Although it does not have the unique taste of Ube, it was entertaining us with its taste and beautiful color as a dessert.If you pass by, you should try it.

There were three types of products using Ube, but I bought a cheesecake tart and tried it. The surroundings were crispy and the filling was delicious with a little saltiness of the cheese. I think its hard to reach the City Square Shopping Center, where the store is located, without a car. Also, the Kalihi area where the shops are located is not safe, so please be careful when you go.

So Ono!

Yes best

Best ubae cheesecake ever !!!
