SO HOW'D IT GO?
Delicious stuff! I made it for my birthday party last October. Non-vegans were absolutely floored at how good it tastes! Thanks for creating this yummy delight to show off how great vegan food can be!
We used this as an alternative dipper, alongside a party chocolate fountain. While it would be untrue to say that it was more popular than the chocolate, it was certainly gobbled up very quickly by a gang of nine year olds!
Great party food, fantastic everyday dessert. I am trying to persuade my daughter that we don't need to have it for breakfast too!
I made it last night and I can't stop eating it. It's AMAZING. Who knew tofu could be so versatile? :)>>>
I'm taking it to the Buddhist temple celebration for the Chinese New Year this evening, there's bound to be some vegans there!
I tried this tonight with frozen organic blueberries and my son loved it! We put whole ones on top. It was a beautiful purple! I thought it tasted good before the fruit was even added! Thanks....much cheaper than the Pete's fruit tofu desserts I buy.
This sounds excellent. And not only for children. Can't imagine using frozen berries so will wait for our next southern hemisphere strawberry season, commencing November. Thanks Dornorozeto.
