FABULOUS DESSERTS YOU CAN ONLY FIND IN BORACAY
I'm referring to Ube Mama and Coco Mama. Well, this is not completely true for Coco Mama but the only other location where you can find Coco Mama is in La Union. So when you're in Boracay, you should grab the opportunity to taste and enjoy these two desserts that is homegrown in Boracay. In a country like ours that exports coconut, it's ironic that coconut ice cream is not so popular so as to find it so readily in the local grocery store like in Thailand. When I was in Bangkok, I feasted on different brands of coconut ice cream from the grocery.
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT UBE MAMA
For ube lovers, it's ube heaven. This dessert does not disappoint. It's heaping with everything ube with the rich taste of coconut cream. . Imagine 2 big scoops of ube coconut ice cream, drizzled with salted coconut cream, topped with a generous amount of ube pudding, sprinkled with cornflakes and palitaw balls on the side. It's a meal in itself.
My tip: The portion size is big so make sure to share it with another person.
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT COCO MAMA
The coconut ice cream is so rich and creamy, it brings back memories of the coconut ice cream I tasted in Nataporn ice cream shop in Thailand. Nataporn serves homemade ice cream in a little alley near the Grand Palace. Their bestseller is the coconut ice cream.
My tip: If you're tasting Coco Mama for the first time, first try the coconut ice cream without mixing it with pandan ice cream or with mango. So you can taste the pure flavor and richness of the coconut ice cream, without other flavors interfering with it. Afterwards, try it with pandan ice cream and mango.
