Many of you know how much I adore dark chocolate sweets. If you browse my dessert archive, you’ll see that more than 50% of the time I’ll write a chocolate flavored sweets than any other kind. I also love making my own sweets at home because I can control the type and the amount of sweetener and the quality of the chocolates.
Good Quality Cacao Powder and Dairy-Free Creamer Are The Key
A good quality of cacao powder has a rich chocolate aroma. The flavor is intense and you can smell it the moment you open the bag. I like to use Navita’s cacao powder. It’s unsweetened.
I also found that using dairy-free half-and-half is a great way to make dairy-free fudge pops. Quite often, I feel that coconut milk cream makes my fudge taste too coconut tasting so a dairy-free coffee creamer that has a combination of almond and coconut milk gives just the right amount of creaminess without being too overpowering.

Would you be able to use regular half and half ? Would it mess with the fudge bars?
HI Maudie, you can definitely use regular half-and-half. It will taste extra milky and creamy. Thank you!
