Ubeer is a frozen dessert sandwich that focuses on the idea of sustainability through upcycling common food waste and using plant-based ingredients. It features an ethnic flavor profile with purple yam, also known as ube, and coconut milk. These ingredients are incorporated into the cookie as well as a plant-based frozen dessert portion that mimics ice cream. This product appeals to those who are searching for a delicious ethnic frozen treat that is considerate of the environmental impacts of conventional animal-based products and the industrial food waste.
