This is a dessert I never see talked about, maybe it's because of the weird ingredients. Growing up, the ingredients for this would be laid out and you got your own. It's a bit like an ice cream sundae I guess. Most if not all of the ingredients can be found at your local Asian market.

Base:
>shaved ice
and/or
>ube ice cream

Common toppings:
>ube
>sweet red beans (red azuki/red mung beans)
>coconut gel (nata de coco)
>macapuno (coconut strings, usually in syrup)
>jackfruit (canned or fresh)
>evaporated milk
>frosted flakes cereal, crushed up
>rice crispy cereal, crushed up
>other fresh fruit, like mango

It can be as sweet or not sweet as you want. Feel free to stray from the toppings listed, they're just a recommendation.
