Good to know

  • Storing: If you want to prepare the yoghurt in advance, or take it with you, store the yoghurt and the toppings in separate airtight containers. The toppings will get soft when you let them sit in the yoghurt for a while. Make sure you store the yoghurt in the refrigerator (or cooler bag if you want to take it with you).
  • Shelf life: The yoghurt will stay good for a few days once removed from its original packaging if stored correctly.
  • Vegan: To make this recipe vegan, use vegan chocolate and yoghurt.
  • Organic: To make this recipe organic, only use organic ingredients.
  • Lactose-Free: Use lactose-free yoghurt.
  • Nut-Free: To make this recipe nut-free, leave out the almonds.
  • Using fruit: Make sure your fruit is ripe before you use it. If it isn’t, it can impact the flavour of your creation in a negative way.

Know What You Eat

Both when buying food or when making your own, it is important to inform yourself about the nutritional value. Have a look at the nutrition label, learn about your serving size and what nutrients this product will bring to the table.

If you want to compare different products and their values, it is easier to look at a label where the values are given per 100 grams. This way you get a better understanding of the categories certain products belong to when it comes to nutritional values. Is this a product with a high sugar content? Does it contain a lot of fibre? How does this product measure up if I am looking to stick to a low-sodium diet?

Keep in mind that if you are looking to eat healthily, you should not just avoid eating fat and/or sugar. We need both in our daily diet. Make sure however to be aware of where you get your lipids and sugars from. As a rule of thumb, you could say; variation is very important in your diet and in general, the closer your food is to come straight from the source, the better.

*All given nutritional information is an indication. Due to differences in how ingredients are produced, where they are purchased and how the recipe is prepared, nutritional values may vary.
