  • The Pinoy Twist: Reimagined as Ube Pavlova, featuring ube cream, tropical fruits like mango and calamansi, and coconut or latik toppings for a distinctly Filipino flavour.
  • Culture in the Kitchen: The fusion dessert reflects the Filipino-Australian experience, blending heritage, memories, and local ingredients into a modern, creative dish.
