Sweetness choices — tap to lower sugar

Use the listed ingredients and amounts. Nutrition, saved shopping and meal planning remain based on this version.

Preparation guidance only. When a supported swap is chosen, Nutrition per serving below shows the adjusted values; filters, sugar screening, exports, Shopping and My Week stay based on the written recipe. A different sweetener does not establish diabetes suitability; total carbs, portion and verified sugars still matter.

Sugar alcohols may cause digestive symptoms; keep xylitol away from dogs. Aspartame must be avoided with PKU. No substitute is universally the healthiest choice.

Storage & Meal Prep Tips

Applies to: Cream or custard dessert, after preparation. Times assume safe preparation, prompt cooling when needed, a refrigerator at 40°F / 4°C or below, and a freezer at 0°F / -18°C or below.

Refrigerator: After preparation: refrigerate and use within 3–4 days.

Freezer: Does not freeze well. Cream and custard fillings separate and turn watery when frozen — a texture problem, not a safety one.

To reheat or serve: Serve chilled.

Meal prep tip: Make a day ahead at most; keep covered in the refrigerator.
