LaClare Creamery Brings Ube Flavor to Goat Cheese
New offering combines Filipino-inspired purple yam with the creamery’s award-winning Original Goat Cheese
LaClare Creamery introduced Ube Goat Cheese. Created with LaClare’s award-winning Original Goat Cheese, the flavor blends the sweet, nutty notes of Ube with a creamy, clean taste.
Ube (pronounced oo-bay) is a purple yam native to the Philippines, cherished for its naturally sweet and nutty flavor. Traditionally a staple ingredient used in Filipino dishes and desserts like ube halaya, cakes and ice cream, the vibrantly purple yam has a taste that is slightly reminiscent of vanilla, which sets it apart from other root vegetables. When blended into LaClare’s Original Goat Cheese, ube’s purple hues bring a new sense to the specialty cheese aisle.
Using the Filipino ingredient, this goat cheese honors tradition while exploring it in a new way. For those who wish to add a little tangy, purple whimsy to their day-to-day meals, LaClare Creamery’s Ube Goat Cheese can be tossed in a salad, mixed into an ube cream pie, spread on a toasted bagel, or crumbled over a smoothie bowl.
