  • Keep fruit portions small (berries are best)
  • Avoid condensed milk or regular sugar
  • Watch portion size (even low-carb desserts add up)

πŸ“ Flavor Ideas

  • Strawberry (like your pink one): add a few mashed strawberries
  • Vanilla (white): keep it simple
  • Mango-style: use a small amount of real mango + sweetener (limit portion)
