[@WhatsForTea]

Good evening everyone! Hope you’ve all had a fab day! :) I’ll be down in the comments 💞

[@LindaC616]

Sunny and bright! Hope tomorrow will be the same for you, Cheryl, thanks!

[@jackwilliamtaylor5656]

I’ve never even heard of this, despite living my whole life in Scotland, but now I’ve GOT to make it

[@CindyCockerham]

I remember buying a striped coconut bar candy when I was a child. It was white, pink, and brown, but it all tasted the same, I make coconut balls rolled in melted chocolate at Christmas time. My recipe is similar, but I melt butter instead of sweetened condensed milk. I'm going to try it your way this year.

[@Unconventionalgirl23]

My aunt used to make coconut ice all the time, it's a tradition in South Africa as well. Fun memories. 😊

Hi, I just subscribed yesterday, but had been listening to your videos for a couple of years. My dad used to be subscribed and watched you regularly. Sadly he passed in August and I hadn't heard you again. Yesterday I was scrolling and I heard your voice and it brought back memories of dad and listening to his comments as you cooked. So I had to sub and imagine what he would be saying while you cooked again.

[@denisedubois5127]

I'm from Glasgow. Live in usa. Love to hear your accent. Thank you so much for this. It brings back memories❤

[@sneekylinux]

[@joancarucci8290]

My mother loved coconut,,Delicious looking.

[@JojoYVR]

I’m a 5th generation Canadian who traces my female line to Argyl. I can’t believe how many of your recipes my Grandma used to make! This coconut ice is another flash back. If it wasn’t my grandma making it it was definitely served in her United church basement!

[@southerncooker6475]

[@amyspeers8012]

I remember hearing coconut ice mentioned on Downton Abbey and thought it was something frozen. Thanks for sharing this!

[@margaretmay288]

I've not had coconut ice for years! Thank you for sharing. 😊

[@Bob-cj6zm]

Greetings from Utah, USA! I’ve made a few of your savory pie recipes and my friends loved them. Thank you sharing! x

So pretty!! It was making my mouth water watching you make it, haha!

[@kayscot22]

Aww thank you for sharing your recipe. I absolutely love coconut ice but I didn't know there was an easy recipe for making it. I will definitely be giving it a try.🙂

[@Jakki61]

A blast from the past for me. My mum use to make them all the time. And coconut pyramids. I don't like coconut....Great memories.

[@ronawilson6955]

Oh my goodness haven't seen this in years! Love coconut ice, def trying this one 😊

[@sandrapaterson8678]

Oh thats a blast from the past and looks delicious 😋

[@debramage739]

Loved these old fashioned recipes, taught my god daughter to do this, fudge and toffee. 😂😊

[@blairseybell]

Looks quite Easter-y. Very pretty.

[@amylynn4507]

It looks delicious and so pretty! Thank you for the recipe!

[@kimbradley1292]

Thanks Cheryl, a blast from the past! It was the first thing I made at school lol x

[@andrewgnys6285]

I have not had this since I was a child. I remember going to school fairs and it would be there. I'm was born in Ulster the true Scotland, I hope your channel grows even more.

[@HereIsMyStuff35]

Thanks for this great recipe! It's a blast from the past, I remember buying this candy at the local bakery.

[@livingwithjoy89]

I’m definitely going to try this recipe!

[@alisonmuxworthy4216]

My Grandmother used to make coconut ice all the ( North East of Scotland) so yummy! Sadly being a diabetic, can't relive the memories! 😅

[@kimberlee3243]

Ooooh.... I have some sweetened condensed coconut milk 😋

[@kathyherman7079]

This looks pretty darn tasty

[@Anwelei]

That’s really interesting a candy named “ice” isn’t frozen. But it kinda looks like snow so it makes sense. Looks good! I like coconut flakes.

[@pammasheppard1338]

This recipe reminds me of a treat we have in the Philadelphia area of the US sold around St Patrick's Day. The end product is different. A bite sized serving of the mixture would be rolled into a ball then rolled in cinnamon. But I bet the texture and taste (without the cinnamon) would be quite similar.

[@staciehedrick4218]

I thank you very much for this wonderful recipe!! I cannot wait to make it 😊 I appreciate your videos so much 😊. Thank you for always sharing your videos with us 😊 🙏🙏

[@susanstones347]

New sub here’.I love your channel so friendly 🤗 You are such a wonderful teacher & i tried a couple of your recipes they turned out grand.Thank you for all the effort you put in to making these videos I’m hooked 😊

[@frankscarborough1428]

Thanks looks delicious

[@vegemitegirl1971]

I haven't made coconut ice in years. Last time I made it I added a tiny amount of rose water to the pink half.

[@louisemccafferty5871]

Looks great

[@WhatsForTea]

Dead easy too Louise! 🤩

[@misolgit69]

Hello Cheryl have you ever eaten a Raspberry Ruffle? imagine individually portioned raspberry flavoured Bounty enrobed in semi dark chocolate

[@rosa-f4865]

I use to love them but haven't seen them years in the shops.

[@denisemeredith2436]

​@@rosa-f4865 I have seen them in Home Bargains here in the Midlands.

[@rosa-f4865]

@@denisemeredith2436 oh thank you I'll take a look in a Home Bargains xx

[@paulamartin6049]

Me 2 love me a raspberry ruffle we have then in home bargains and b&m here in northern ireland in bars with 5 in a pack for 1.25 and also in bags of individual sweets for same price check it out and if you get then enjoy ox

[@bevm1938]

I make my own take on them, very similar recipe but add raspberry jelly crystals to the mix instead of pink colouring and then cover in chocolate

[@G-boi]

If you made twice the recipe then split it in three sections and color one brown then you could make neapolitan coconut ice-cream.

[@Jim-yi9re]

Yum

[@LindaC616]

That would be truly decadent, with a fudge base

[@WhatsForTea]

Oh wouldn't it just! 😆

[@yroppoor]

a love this stuff

[@lisamckay5058]

Why do we not have this in the US?! This looks delicious.

[@nettytrom6992]

My mum use to make this for us. Guess what I am making tomorrow!!

[@brianphillips1864]

This looks interesting and I have all the ingredients on hand. Let's see how the church folk like it :-)

[@PennyBluebottle]

Ooh yummy x

[@erinmcgrathejm4985]

I heard coconut ice mentioned on a TV show once…and assumed it was a frozen concoction! Now I know. Silly American.

[@marciah0312]

Ha ha! I thought it would be like sorbet as well. Sounds yummy, though! :)

[@susanfryer1616]

Love the look of it and I would make it , but makes my teeth ache just looking at it

[@arthurvasey]

Cochineal might help to make it pink!

[@WhatsForTea]

Ewww oh no 😆

[@arthurvasey]

@@WhatsForTea Would have thought that it had no taste! Just turned everything pink!

[@WhatsForTea]

@@arthurvasey Just the thought of it though 😆 I'm sure it wouldn't taste of anything though!

[@davidmurphy816]

Beetle juice 🪲‼️🥴🤢😂🤣🤣

[@denisemeredith2436]

Cochineal is the traditional food colouring.

[@davidmurphy816]

Yummy - Thanks for sharing Cheryl 🙏 Bet it would be great smothered in dark bitter chocolate to cut through some of the sweetness as well.😋💕💞💗

[@dsmyify]

Hiya, do you have a good shortbread recipe? One that creates shortbread similar to the brand in the shops. The basic flour, sugar, butter recipe turns out like different. Any help anyone?

[@WhatsForTea]

I have a few shortbread recipes uploaded to the channel :) if you search for - what's for tea shortbread then they should all come up ☺

[@dsmyify]

@@WhatsForTea ~ thank you, knew you would have a recipe. Just found a way to search your channels recipes on the laptop, will find it now. 🤗 It's going to an Indian colleague whose mad for Scottish shortbread.

[@epicwave7060]

I use beet juice to dye it

[@hoof2001]

Bet you’re dentist loves the extra business 😂
