Color plays an important part in kubé products. Vibrant and tangy flavors of fruits like passion fruit pureé imparted a bright yellow- orange color. It is a very inspiring and uplifting hue that brings a joyful and tropical feeling to the ice cream. For the lemon-ginger flavor, it was decided that the yellow ginger root was to be blended into the coconut cream with freshly squeezed lemon juice for a powerful, zesty, and slightly spicy note. A deeper yellow color was created by adding a very small amount of turmeric powder into the coconut cream base. Last but not least, for the Goddess EmpowerMINT (mint chip) flavor, a small amount of spirulina green algae powder and peppermint essential oil was added to the coconut cream base for a mild green color that is reminiscent of the peppermint leaf. Personally, her favorites are passion fruit, pineapple, coffee latté, bittersweet chocolate with cacao nibs, strawberry, and Goddess EmpowerMINT. When people taste kubé at events or farmers’ markets, they experience moments of joy, luxuriousness, and sensuality. Many are amazed by the vibrant flavors and the creamy dairy-like texture. “I often hear people ask, ‘How did you get the coconut flavor out?! This is incredible because I only taste clean flavors in a smooth and creamy texture. This feels like dairy ice cream!’” she says.
