What you'll need

  • Stand mixer — Hands-free creaming and whipping — the most time-saving machine in a baker's kitchen.
  • Kitchen scale — Baking by weight is more accurate than cups — 1 g = 1 g, always.
  • Silicone baking mat — No parchment waste, uniform browning, nothing sticks.

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix coconut milk with honey and vanilla extract for the base syrup. Chill until ready to serve.
  2. Divide the roasted purple sweet potato, mashed red beans, banana, mango, and almond jelly among the bottoms of tall glasses.
  3. Pack a tall mound of shaved ice on top of each glass and pour the chilled coconut syrup over the ice.
  4. Serve immediately with long spoons and stir well before eating — 'halo-halo' means 'mix-mix.'
