Ube Tea Cookies: 8/10
🚨NEW ITEM🚨 When these first came out I totally thought it was Ube cereal because of how the picture on the box looked! Anyone else?? 😂 I was a little sad because I’ve been waiting for more delicious cereals from #traderjoes but was still super excited to try these cookies. First off, they don’t quite look like they look on the box and I could hardly taste the Ube in them. Every year for Christmas my family makes what we call “moon cookies” that are almond shortbread cookies rolled in powder sugar, and these Ube cookies tasted EXACTLY like those! Basically just like a sweet, buttery cookie with powder sugar and a crunchy texture. I enjoyed these and found that the bite sized shape of them made them addicting and hard to stop eating. I would’ve liked a more pronounced ube flavor, but would buy these again for a tea party or picnic. Each box is $3.99.
Have you tried them yet? What did you think?
Try Ube Halaya so you know what real ube tastes like. The cookies imo is 2/10..
bought them today and love them. they are addicting
@thelovelynisha
Pass also. No ube flavor, too sweet, I taste the almond..
was it just me or did it kinda smell like play dough?
@deniseeeybui 😍
Don’t think they are available in NY 😢
Wow. The color is a big difference from outside the box!!! Lol. I just grabbed them today so i will report back 🤔
Thought these were terrible. They’re not even purple. Very disappointing
Didn’t taste like Ube…wasn’t a fan! 😢
What is ube made out of? Potatoes right?
@stephaniehannablog 😍
It doesnt taste like ube at all and it has an after taste
I wasn’t impressed sadly
Love this ❤️
@helloimconnor
They were pretty sweet, but not bad. I liked how bite sized they were though
Really no Ube flavor, and made me nostalgic for the ube my Lola (grandmother) used to make. 😢
I LOVED THEM ! Absolutely addictive
Was super reluctant, mostly because I have no idea what Ube is. But got them today based on your rating & ate 1/2 the box in the car home!!
@flora_0630 if you see these 🙏🏻
So sad these are already out of season?!
Hated these! I really wanted to like them but it tasted nothing like ube and it wasn’t good even if it wasn’t ube flavored. I sadly threw it away 🙁
These I tried very tasty will buy again
