Ube/purple yam pastry

[Dilbertian]

I bought a package of 5 pieces of frozen purple yam pastry.

What do I do with it?

Ube is a flavour that works in both sweet and savoury.

Is this a normal pastry? I would be very tempted to make egg custard tarts topped with plenty of nutmeg. But then you will have an excess of whites.

From the ingredients list i think it's probably sweet. I like the idea of custard tarts. Could a surfeit of whites be combined with a small purple yam, custard, and the pastry to make Ube Meringue Pie?

(I bought some long, thin sweet potatoes last week. Some were much darker than others, and turned out to be insanely purple inside - so I suspect some ube got mixed up with sweet potatoes.)

I didn't intend to quote

Jurgen used it on GBBO a couple of weeks ago, I think as a donut filling

If it's from the Philippines then it's almost certainly sweet.

Despite having a Filipina maid/cook through much of my childhood I've actually never come across Ube pastry, but I'd probably just use it as a sweet pastry as others have suggested above. Possibly blind bake it and then use it to serve halo-halo in?

Custard tarts, then macaroons with the egg whites is a typical combination of deserts in this house!
