Notes
* Most of the time dark chocolate is vegan, make sure to check the ingredients to be 100% sure the one you purchase is plant-based.
** The agar agar powder I use is strong, make sure to use enough powder to stabilize 9 deciliter of liquid. Check the instructions on the package to be sure you use it correctly.

Is it possible to make it mother rice or soy milk?
Dear Jekaterina, you can use it but the pudding won’t be as creamy. I’d use cashew milk to replace coconut milk if I were you. I hope this helps 🙂
The coconut milk – is it the thick, canned one or the more liquidy carton one?
I used a more liquidy one (in carton) but you could use coconut cream too 🙂
So you use the carton ones which also come in Almond Milk etc, not the coconut milks which come in a can you use for curry’s etc? THANK YOU. Can’t wait to serve this this weekend.
You can use both for this recipe 🙂
What if I am not vegan and I dont have agar agar?
Hi! You don’t have to be vegan to get agar agar 🤣 there is no substitute for it in this recipe but it’s actually super cheap and easy to find :))
What brand do you use for the strong agar agar?
What kind of mold?. What can you use instead
You can use any pudding mold you like 🙂
Do you have the nutrition information for this recipe by chance?
I don’t sorry 🙁
What’s a good substitute for agar agar?
There isn’t. Gelatine is not vegan so it’s not an option. But you can find agar agar quite easily in any supermarket 🙂
I can’t wait to try this recipe. It looks so good, but I did want to pop in to say I have visited 5 grocery stores, a Whole Foods and a Fresh Market, and none have agar agar. I ordered it off Amazon. Anyway, I live in a medium sized city, so it’s not too easy to find in stores. Amazon has multiple different versions though.
I guess it depends where you live. Here in Seitzerland you can find it easily. Be sure to order powdered agar agar and not agar agar flakes. ❤️ I hope you’ll love it! Let me know how it turns out 🥳
If you are not vegan can you use gelatin?
can you use normal milk
It’s a vegan recipe. I’d never suggest to use “regular” milk for ethical and health reasons. You can find plant-based milk everywhere 🙂
Can you use oat milk instead of coconut milk?
I‘ve never tried to make it with oat milk but it should work out. Let me know how it turns out :))
Can I use cocoa powder instead of chocolate?
You can try but you’d have to add more coconut oil to compensate the missing cacao butter that stabilises the pudding 🙂
Is that a homemade mold in the video? If so, how was it made?
Cant this be made without agar agar… eagerly wanted to try this!
Yes you can use gelatin even though they’re saying not to because it is an animal product. This is a vegan recipe but you don’t have to make this a vegan recipe. You can use regular milk and gelatin.
Does it taste coconutty?
I want to try but don’t know agar agar and vegan..pls.can u paste the look of it.the total look pls.
When I needed agar agar before, I looked everywhere. The only place I was able to find it was a specialty health store and it was very expensive. It is definetely not easy to find unless ypu order it on line. People don’t even know what it is.
Hi! It really depends on where you live. Here in Switzerland you can find it very easily 🙂 im glad you found it, happy cooking!
I had coconut cream so I added 1 cup simple milk to 1 cup coconut cream
Do you know if the proportion will be the same if I use regular milk? I have nothing against vegan stuff but I am allergic to coconuts.
Hi! I’ve never made it with “regular” milk so I’m unable to answer. Coconut milk works perfectly because of its thickness so I’d rather replace it with a thick cashew milk 🙂 i hope this helps.
Searched locally for agar agar powder. Not sure if carried in the stores, but online a substitute is cornstarch.
How would this change the texture or taste?
I’ve been trying a lot of chia seed puddings. I think I will try substituting chia seeds for the agar agar and see what happens.
