Given the recent popularity of taro ball desserts, here’s our yummilicious variant on this dish!
We made 3 different colors of balls, using yam, purple, and orange sweet potatoes. Not only are they colorful, they can make a fun family activity too! We used NutriSoy Fresh Soya Milk with Walnut Reduced Sugar in a pot, and added instant jelly powder just before it boils to make the beancurd. With continual stirring it will result in an even mixture that’s perfect for the dessert.
Add optional toppings of red bean and brown sugar syrup based on your preference, and you’ll have a fun treat for the any day of the week.
