Helpful Tips

  • If you prefer a smoother texture, make sure to strain the mango puree before adding it to the pudding mixture.
  • This pudding can be made a day in advance and kept refrigerated until you’re ready to serve.
  • For a vegan version, use agar-agar powder instead of gelatin.
  • If fresh mangoes are not available, canned or frozen mangoes can also be used.

Storage Instructions

Store the Mango Coconut Pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you plan to store it longer, ensure it’s well-covered to prevent it from absorbing any other flavors.
