It is typically topped with mango cream frosting, fresh mango slices, or pureed mangoes ingulaman orgelatin. Other common toppings include cream, cream cheese, and chocolate. It also commonly sandwiches slices of mangoes between the layers. It is one of the most popular cake variants in the Philippines, where mangoes are abundant year-round.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] Commercial versions are also available in large bakery chains likeRed Ribbon Bakeshop andGoldilocks Bakeshop, as well as individual recipes from restaurants, often with unique names. It is very similar tocrema de mangga (or "mango float"), except that mango cake uses layers ofchiffon cake notbroas orgraham crackers. The two recipes can sometimes be combined, however.[8]
Like inube cakes, mango cakes can also be made as other traditional Filipinomamón cake forms, like aspianonos (Swiss rolls).[9][10]
