Picture the tantalizing aroma of freshly baked pie wafting through the air, teasing your senses with its irresistible sweetness. But hey, this ain’t just any old pie – this is our Ubi Cilembu Pie, a true delight that’s about to take your taste buds on a wild, flavor-packed adventure.
The star in this beautiful pie is the “honey” sweet potato, locally known as Ubi Cilembu (from “ubi” which means sweet potato, and “cilembu”, word that comes from the Cilembu-Sumedang region of West Java). These vibrant orange spuds aren’t ordinary; they’re nature’s sweet gift, boasting a natural sweetness that’s as comforting as a warm hug. Grown in the rich, fertile soils of Indonesia, these tubers soak up the tropical sunshine, infusing them with a unique, naturally sugary flavor that’s hard to resist.
Our Ubi Cilembu Pie isn’t just a pie – it’s a masterpiece crafted by skilled hands and a sprinkle of local magic. The flaky, dark crust (only made with cacao beans, cashews, dates and dried coconut), envelops a luscious filling made from these delightful sweet potatoes, carefully mashed to creamy perfection. Imagine sinking your fork into a slice and feeling it glide effortlessly through the velvety filling, revealing the sweet, earthy goodness within.
But wait, there’s more! We take pride in using only the freshest ingredients, mostly straight from local Balinese farms. Each bite of this pie is a tribute to the dedication of our farmers and their commitment to quality. This pie is completely vegan and gluten-free, it is smooth and the addition of coconut cream makes it even smoother!
Whether you’re a local Bali dweller or a visitor exploring this beautiful island, our Ubi Cilembu Pie is a must-try culinary adventure. It’s a slice of our local culture served on a plate, a symphony of flavors that’ll make you fall head over heels in love with the sweet essence of Ubi Cilembu.
