1 1/2 tbsp honey 30 g

For best results, use ONLY silken tofu.

With silken tofu, this comes out nice and creamy. Depending on what mix of frozen berries you use, some more sweetener may be needed. (I add Xylitol if necessary). Simple and tasty - a winner

Yum! Very easy to make, my kids help me make it too which was fun. I did not have honey, so just added a few tsps of white sugar. I tasted it before adding the sugar and probably could have gotten away without the sugar or honey, it would have just been more tart and less sweet! Worked very well with the sugar if you are stuck. I used Silken Tofu.

PLEASE use the specified type of tofu, i.e. SILKEN TOFU, otherwise expect disappointing results. Silken tofu is very creamy to start with and blends well with the fruits. All other types of tofu will bring an unpleasing texture. Please do follow the instructions!!!

Maybe I used the wrong tofu, maybe the tofu was "off" but this was not appetizing at all. I used medium-firm tofu (from the deli section of our grocery store) and it blended up nice and smooth. The smell alone should have been enough to let me know that I wasn't going to like it, but I tasted it anyways. Yuck. My kids gave it a try and didn't like it either. Three strikes...we'll spare my husband. I loved the idea so maybe I'll give it a shot with some other kind of tofu someday. Otherwise, we'll just stick to berries alone.

The tofu flavour wasn't enough to cut the tartness of the berry mic for us. I might try it again using frozen fresh strawberries or blueberries and more sweetener, and I would probably put in some gelatin to set it better.
