What does is say 1 bottle of Tsamma Juice? Where do you add it in?
Hi Ashley,
The Tsamma Juice is to pair with the bars. It’s not actually included in the recipe.

How well do these freeze? If I wanted to make a big batch, could I freeze them?
We haven’t tried freezing them yet. With similar items, I’ve added them single layer to a ziplock bag, topped with a paper towel. You can usually do 2 or 3 layers this way (make sure to use a paper towel between each layer). Defrost in the fridge or on the counter. The paper towels will absorb the moisture to keep things fresh.
What can I use in place of coconut?
You can just leave it out if you’re not a fan 🙂
