This doesn’t taste right, it is very bitter. Is the sweetner amount correct?
Hey Karl! I'm sorry you had an issue with the sweetness. All sugar-free sweeteners vary, so if it's too bitter, just add extra to taste.
Can you make it and keep in the fridge or do you have to eat it immediately?
Hey Clare! You can keep it in the fridge, and it'll keep for up to 3 days.
Do we use cocoa powder or cacao powder? It's written two different ways.
Hi Tamara, sorry for the confusion. Cacao powder is what you'll use for this recipe. Thanks!
If you don't have coconut milk can you use something else?
Hey Carol, you can use almond milk as a substitute instead.
How many servings does this make?
Hey Kat, this recipe makes 4 servings and the nutritional information is for 1 serving 🙂 Hope that helps!
Is the flesh of the avocado the skin (outer part) Do we not use the inside of the avocado?
Hey Natassja, the flesh is the inside of the avocado, we don't use the outer skin. Enjoy!
Hi! Is there a sub for the avocado? I’m allergic 🙁
Hey Kate! You can just leave it out, and it'll still taste delicious 🙂
This recipe is four servings.....I'm the only one doing keto. Can the remainder be frozen like ice cream?
Hi Kat! I don't recommend freezing this recipe but you can store it in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. You should be able to enjoy it all before then 🙂
Can we substitute anything for the sweetener? Maple syrup , agave? Etc
Hi Dawn.
You can substitute the sweetener for any other sugar-free variety. Stevia, monk fruit, swerve, etc., are all fine.
If you're following keto, maple syrup and agave have too many carbs to use.
If I’m allergic to avocado what can I use as replacement?
You can just leave it out, and the pudding will still taste great!
Can I make this without the cacao power?. Milk chocolate makes me sneeze and itch. But white and dark chocolate do not depending on the brand.
Yes, you can make it without cacao powder!
