Yema cake is a Filipino chiffon cake with a custard filling known as yema. It is generally prepared identically to mamón (chiffon cakes and sponge cakes in Filipino cuisine), with the only difference being that it incorporates yema either as frosting, as filling, or as part of the cake batter. Yema is a custard-like combination of milk and egg yolks. It is also typically garnished with grated cheese.{{cite web |title=Yema Cake |url=https://www.kawalingpinoy.com/yema-cake/ |website=Kawaling Pinoy |access-date=March 27, 2019}}{{cite web |title=Yema cake |url=https://www.everydayme.com.ph/home/cooking/yema-cake |website=Everyday Me |access-date=March 27, 2019}}{{cite web |title=Yema Cake Recipe |url=https://www.yummy.ph/recipe/yema-cake |website=Yummy.ph |access-date=March 27, 2019}}{{cite web |title=Yema Chiffon Cake Recipe |url=https://www.yummy.ph/recipe/yema-chiffon-cake-recipe |website=Yummy.ph |access-date=March 27, 2019}}{{cite web |title=Yema Cake Recipe |url=https://www.pinoycookingrecipes.com/yema-cake.html |website=Pinoy Cooking Recipes |access-date=March 27, 2019}}{{cite web |title=Yema Cake Recipe |url=https://pilipinasrecipes.com/yema-cake-recipe/ |website=Pilipinas Recipes |access-date=March 27, 2019}}
