While walking along the streets of Makati the other night, I passed-by Mini-Stop along Pasong Tamo to satisfy my usual craving for cheap soft serve ice cream.
The last one I had was when it was still the Hershey’s Chocolate sundae flavor (which is yummy by the way).
To my surprise, I saw an ube colored poster and asked details about it. It turned out that it’s a new flavor which just started last Dec 28 in all of their branches – it’s Ube Halaya Sundae!
However, it’s on a Limited offer basis and most probably would only last for a week or two. So hurry up!
It seems that Mini-Stop is just testing the market for the flavor. It may come back later on if it does well.
Ube Halaya or Halaya Ube is a rich dark lavender purple color of sweet yam-jams usually stored in bottles found in local grocery shelves. It isĀ made from a variety of sweet potato called purple yam (ube)
It almost tastes like its real ice cream counterpart.
At P15 (USD 0.33), Mini-Stop‘s Ube Halaya Sundae is love.
Just have it in moderation though; powder-based soft serve ice-cream/sundae are not exactly healthy food. One Ube Halaya Sundae per day would do.
(kidding!) Nomnomnom….




Masarap nga yang soft ice cream ng ministop jonel. Kaya lang choco yung nakain namin ng gf ko that time. Try ko din yang new Ube Halaya nila. Thanks for sharing! Happy New Year and GODBLESS!
Ube is my favorite ice cream flavor, eversince I was a kid! My brothers and my sister would even tell me, pamg-matanda daw yung favorite flavor ko
Ube is one of my favorites too!…and yes, I got that comment too!
haha (that ube is pangmatanda – whatever to them)
I love ube flavored ice cream so much and that soft sundae teased me to buy one. nom nom!
katitikim ko lng nyan kahapon nung pumunta ko sa Caloocan nomnomnom
nice. so how was it?
I dropped by a Mini-Stop a while ago before going home but this branch at The Enterprise has yet to have the ube halaya flavor. I’ll try another branch tomorrow. Gotta taste this…..FASSSSSSST!
i like ube.. is this still available?
no more na as of last week pa. They brought back their hersheys chocolate flavor though
have yet to blog about the Hershey’s choco falvor
Really? Wala na? Good thing I had the chance to taste it last week or was it 2 weeks ago, I forgot. I liked it!
Is the hershey’s soft serve ice cream exclusive to Mini-Stop? I’d like to put one in our kiosk in a call center
