FAQ – Let’s Clear Things Up

Absolutely! Just swap the Greek yoghurt for coconut yoghurt and use plant-based milk. Too easy.
Store it in the fridge for up to 5 days — if it lasts that long. You can also freeze slices for later!
You can, but Botanika Blends gives it that unbeatable cake batter flavour. Other brands might change the texture or sweetness.
Think rich, moist, and dense with gooey bits — especially if you go heavy on the choc chunks. It’s like a brownie’s buff cousin.
