Choosing Ube Time

Ube Time powder or capsules?

At Ube Time, your ube latte comes in two formats: pure powder to measure yourself, and the Nespresso-compatible capsule, ready at the press of a button. Here is how to choose the one that suits you.

Two formats, the same ube

Both start from the same ube Kinampay. The powder lets you control everything: your milk, your dose, your colour, and it also works for baking. The capsule bets on simplicity: you slot it into your machine, add milk, and your ube latte is ready in a few seconds.

💜 Did you know?

Our capsules are compatible with Nespresso Original machines. No special equipment to buy: you use the machine you already have.

The powder, for freedom

The powder is for you if you like to compose: adjust the dose, choose your milk, play with the intensity of the violet, and use it in your cakes, ice creams and creams too. One pouch, dozens of recipes.

The capsule, for simplicity

The capsule is perfect if you want your ube latte effortless, every morning, with the consistency of a machine. You slot it in, add milk, it's ready. Ideal at the office or on busy days.

💜 The Ube Time tip

Many customers take up both: the capsule on weekdays for speed, the powder at the weekend to cook and customise.

So, which one for you?

There is no wrong choice, only yours. Want to control everything and cook with ube? The powder. Want an ube latte ready in one move? The capsules. And nothing stops you combining both.

✨ Key takeaways
  • Powder: total freedom, drinks and baking, best cost per cup.
