How Should I Serve Corazon’s Ube Decadence?

It’s best when served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. If you want to be really classy, then make it look more unique and elegant by using a traditional serving dish and serving it with some fresh ube halaya.

Can Corazon’s Ube Decadence Be Frozen?
