Vegan Sweetened Condensed Milk | Just 2 ingredients

Vegan sweetened condensed milk has been impossible for me to find locally so I finally made my own. Turns out, it's super easy to make. Just use soy milk and sugar and boil it down.
Printable recipe and full story : www.marystestkitchen.com/easy-...
A NOTE ABOUT SUGAR: Hey guys, a few of you have been asking so here's the low down. Some white sugar is filtered through bone char during the purifying process. This is true of most white cane sugar and often brown/golden sugar as well. Other white sugars aren't typically filtered this way, such as beet sugar. Many organic brands will be labelled vegan. The ONLY way to determine for sure if any brand of sugar is vegan-friendly or not is to contact the manufacturer directly to ask specifically about bone char (if not labelled as vegan). Fun fact: Sugar made in Australia is all bone-char free!
For those in Western Canada, Roger's sugar coming out of Taber, AB doesn't use bone-char either. The product number will start with "22" if it's from Taber. If it starts with "10," it's from Vancouver,BC where it is NOT vegan-friendly.
VEGAN SWEETENED CONDENSED SOY MILK
Makes 1 cup
INGREDIENTS (US)
2 cups soy milk (regular, NOT low-fat)
1 cup granulated sugar
INGREDIENTS (Metric)
473 ml soy milk (regular, NOT low-fat)
200 g granulated sugar
DIRECTIONS
Combine the soy milk and sugar in a medium sized sauce pan. Make sure the sauce pan is large enough to accommodate a fair bit of bubbling.
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Keep watch so that you can stir down or remove it from the heat when it starts to bubble up. Be careful as this can bubble over quickly and create a sticky mess.
Turn the heat down to medium (or a bit lower) so that the mixture can simmer and continue to evaporate.
Keep cooking until the liquid has been reduced to one cup's worth. Stir occasionally. As with cooking caramel or syrup, it's important to keep an eye on the mixture so that it doesn't bubble over. If you find the mixture bubbling up, stir it vigorously to keep the bubbles down or turn the heat down a bit.
When the mixture has been reduced to your preference, remove it from heat and pour it into a clean heat-proof container. Let cool before using.
Store for up to a week in the fridge. Enjoy!

Tried it with almond milk and it came out perfectly. It took me quite a while because I didn't want to mess up but it was worth it

[@Christine-777]

Thank you!!

[@lisagardner4814]

Did you try coconut sugar

[@edus82]

Coconut sugar experience with this recipe: So I made it with coconut sugar - the only sugar I had at home, and it's amazing, however, not like condensed milk but more of a caramel flavour. The texture is less firm, more water-like, even though I had it reduced to less then half. Nevertheless tastes nice and I poured it in my coffee too. Thanks for sharing your amazing recipes!

[@marystestkitchen]

+Edina Kurdi Thanks for sharing, my dear. Coconut sugar is far less sweet than regular sugar and has that lovely caramel-ness to it :-)

[@Cjohnny27]

I also tried coconut sugar. It didn’t work. I ended up using as the actual creamer. Tastes great!

[@lisagardner4814]

I am going to try almond milk and coconut sugar

[@sweeteuthiedoll]

I wanted to test it before telling you my theory, but I used a bigger pot and because of the extra surface area, mine was done in minutes. Like 5-10. Definitely less than 15 though. Thanks for the recipe, dedicating tomorrow's coffee to you! :)

[@marystestkitchen]

sweeteuthiedoll whoa that's amazing! I'm going to add your experience to the notes of the recipe. You may have just saved a bunch of time for many people. And think of the ENERGY savings! Basically, you're saving the world! :D

[@marystestkitchen]

P.S. I tried your trick over the weekend and it worked for me as well. Took about 20 minutes don't have such a large pot, but I used my largest frying pan with the highest sides and kept the heat on the low side to avoid potential disaster. Thank you!

[@sweeteuthiedoll]

No problem, Mary! I love your channel! It's the least I could do!

[@marystestkitchen]

sweeteuthiedoll

[@BubblesTonight]

Did this with almond milk and pure cane sugar I had on hand. It worked perfectly maybe a little less syrupy but still had the same end result and it only took about 25 minutes. This tastes amazing in Thai tea as I'm a big Thai tea fan but can never have it without the sweet condensed milk to compliment the flavor.

[@lauracoutinho3380]

If you use 1/2 soy milk and 1/2 coconut milk, it turns out even better! A tip to know if it’s ready: put a plate in the freezer and pour a tiny drop of the condensed milk on the cold plate. Tilt the plate and if it drips slowly it means you’re done!

[@mamazenaluv_u7624]

😮😊....thank you for sharing that tip.

[@CowsCanCook]

I like how you mix with chopsticks

[@sierraschaffer613]

I just made this, and it actually worked! Over the years I have tried many recipes, using a variety of milks. This worked, and if you cook it a bit longer it goes to a beautiful thick rich carmel sauce ! Its lovely !

[@er1nyes_]

The thing with sweet condensed milk, vegan or not, is that you don't have an idea of how time-consuming it is to make and it requires a lot of patience. That's why making it at home kind of gives a whole other value, don't you think? Thank you so much for showing yet another vegan version of a cooking staple. =) Your videos are the best! Short, high-quality and super well edited. I love your channel.

[@emi_fae]

Just wanted to say that I love your channel! I love making food from the different Asian countries and its nice to have already vegan-ized versions of the recipes. :) I can't wait to try this recipe and see if I can recreate the thai iced tea I had everyday in Chiang Mai. Thank you for all your hard work!

[@MaddieLullaby]

the way you speak is amazing! You sound so fun and friendly!!! I was just googling to see if this even exists and then found your video and I'm so happy I did!! If i have a spare 45 mins I'll try it :) Thank you!

[@Ligaya1980]

I never thought of making vegan sweetened condensed milk, but this is a very simple recipe. I think that one of the first things that I'd use this for is a topping for a Vegan Filipino style cassava cake. The one my family used to make was topped with condensed milk and then put under the broiler to further caramelize it. Thanks for the inspiration. I'll let you know what happens when I make it =) Wishing you a happy and healthy new year 🎉🌟

[@NewlyAwakened]

Wow. Just wow. You are so thoughtful and creative. Once again right on time as many of us out here (at least myself) was wondering how to come up with a caramel sauce that was vegan and here you have it! Now THIS would go great in my Vegan Caramel Frappuccinos! (ie banana with coffee syrup flavoring smoothies). I bet you are right that would be so tasty to dip pastries and buns into as well.

[@marystestkitchen]

lol I only thought of it because someone in the What Fat Vegans Eat group on FB posted a picture of their store-bought soy condensed milk and I thought "No fair!" hehe Thanks so much for your sweet comment, dear. I want one of those frappes too!

[@rebeccaiovanna]

My grandma makes the BEST cuban rice pudding EVER and I thought I would have to give it up forever but now we can sub the dairy milk for this!!! thank youu!

[@marystestkitchen]

rebeccaiovanna woohoo!! I am so glad this can help you recreate an old favourite!

[@alicenirvana]

鸳鸯 is delicious I'm glad you mentioned it. I need to make this recipe to use in thai iced tea! Your channel is one of my favourite vegan recipe channels right now, nearly everything you make is something I would want to eat! My thai iced tea never comes out as good as it does in vegan restaurants, I need to learn the secret of making it proper.

[@marystestkitchen]

Alice Rose aww thank you! I am so glad to help

[@Alliesun_]

love this video and your voice! I'm currently in the process of making this! one batch with almond milk and one batch with coconut milk!

[@Alliesun_]

So the coconut milk and white cane sugar turned out beautifully! It has a great taste and consistency. I made it to use in a vegan version of the traditional Puerto Rican holiday drink "coquito"! The almond milk, isn't as beautiful looking, and has a very distinct almond flavor (obviously) but it's tastes good and will probably be used for some kind of almond cookie.

[@1DAlexandra]

So glad to to see this! I'm going to use this to make some Jamaican cornmeal porridge.

[@marystestkitchen]

Dana Miller Yum! I've never had that. It sounds delicious! Thanks for the comment, dear :-)

[@pinkhope84]

I am reall so happy that i subscribed to your channel :) great recipes and a lovely personality !!!

[@marystestkitchen]

pink hope

[@MrHistoryfreak]

i tried that and made a vegan three milk rice pudding using that as a condense milk, coconut fat from coconut milk as evaporated milk, and a sweet soymilk to substitute milk. It came out good and had same taste as regular milk rice pudding.

[@littleointment]

omgggg so simple but soo magical! thank you for showing this!! aaaa thank uu. how long can you keep this do you think?

[@marystestkitchen]

littleointment I think a week in the fridge since that's how long the regular stuff will last for after you open it. Please let me know how you like it if you try this recipe, dear :-) Thanks for commenting!

[@marystestkitchen]

Sarah Tabler Thanks for your thoughtful comment, dear. I've added a note to this video's description to help explain how you can find out whether the white sugar supplied in your stores is vegan or not. Lucky for me, the main brand of white sugar sold near me is vegan-friendly.

[@Sarahlinii]

Mary's Test Kitchen You're very welcome Mary, I so enjoy your videos! They've all been so informative and witty. I look forward to trying to create many of the foods you teach us how to make, especially the cheeses! :) And thank you for providing the information regarding the sugar as well, I was unaware true Vegan white sugar even existed, I appreciate you letting me know! Thanks a bunch and keep up with all your awesomeness!

[@lydiajacobs3974]

Thanks so much for the recipe. I am going to make Arroz con leche for my husband to take to work, however one of his Co workers is lactose intolerant so I am making a vegan version for him so he can enjoy as well. Sweetened condensed milk is a main ingredient, so I am thrilled to find your recipe!! How much sugar did you add? I missed that part. Please post more videos! I am a chef and love vegan dishes!

[@passaggioalivello]

I'll do it very very soon, I really love this amazing recipe.

[@marystestkitchen]

***** Fantastic! I hope you'll let me know how it goes :-) Thanks for the comment, dear

[@falconcara]

I'm definitely re-creating this, I've missed having Thai iced tea. Thank you!!

[@marystestkitchen]

Falconcara mMm Yes, Thai iced tea is so similar!

[@Sarahlinii]

Seeing as how typical white sugar is not technically Vegan (it is filtered through "bone char" made of course from Animal bones), I would be inclined to try this with my favorite cruelty-free coconut sugar. All in all, it sounds good and is a very informative video as always Mary, thanks for sharing!

[@lollipop3336]

I made this about two days ago and it's delicious! It tastes exactly like very sweet tapioca pudding to me. It's wonderful in my tea. I stored it in the fridge, and it took on a taffy-like, stretchy consistency, so I popped it in the microwave and it went back to normal. After about two days, it was no longer smooth, and there were sugar crystals in it. It still tastes delicious, but I was wondering if there's a way to prevent this. Maybe I overcooked it? Thanks

[@marystestkitchen]

@crazedanisa Your google settings don't allow me to comment directly, so I hope you see this! This is meant to be very sweet, but you can adjust the amount to your preference. Keep in mind that the sugar directly affects the thickness of the final product. Happy experimenting!

[@purplepeopleeater4898]

Thank you so very much!!! Condensed milk and powdered milk is staple in Asian homes.. and how I longed to have a taste and have coffee with condensed milk a pretty cloud at the bottom of the glass.. Heaven!!! I also immediately made coconut candy with this just about amazing!!! Thanks so much

[@marystestkitchen]

You're most welcome!

[@slowfire2]

This is my answer to how to replace the condensed cow's milk! Thanks!

[@mytwocopppercoins]

I miss iced Vietnamese coffee w/ condensed milk (I'm a vegan as well) so I really look forward to giving this is a try. I've thought about trying this exact same process but it's nice to know someone else has already experimented and it works.

[@marystestkitchen]

mytwocoppercoins Yay! I'm so glad to have helped in a small way. I hope you love it!

[@108Asmita]

thanks for sharing this receipe. now I would be able to substitute ordinary condensed milk with vegan condensed milk. I cook a lot of sweet at home. like rice pudding, tapioca pudding and ice creams. one of my favourites is fakaas and they are very delicious.

[@pinkxiheart]

you make the bestttttttt recipes

[@marystestkitchen]

+pinkxiheart Thank you

[@Amanthius]

Awesome, thanks for the tutorial!

[@mamazenaluv_u7624]

Your channel of you making bread came up in my news feed. I'm so glad I clicked it to watch. So of course I clicked this video. I love condensed milk. I put it on my fruit and in my hot cereal to substitute for sugar. I am going to give this recipe a try. Also, the same health challenges that you mentioned in your bread making video, I'm experiencing as well in my body. Going vegan have not been on top of my list however I am interested in changing some of my choices to vegan ones. Now I can with your helpful and simply vegan recipes. Thank you so much for sharing. 🫂❤️🙏🏼

[@marystestkitchen]

Hi I'm so glad you found my channel! I'm not sure which videos you watched yet but I made this recipe years ago when I wasn't having any noticeable health issues. In recent years, I discovered that my chronic pain is triggered by consuming sugar and other dense forms of carbohydrates. While this vegan condensed milk is delicious and fine for healthy people, if you suffer from chronic inflammation and pain like I did, you might reconsider. These days, I would never make this for myself.

[@8mellene8]

Axually coconut sugar works wonderfully;)

[@missfrankiefontaine]

Yay! Thankyou for sharing :3

[@shauntelgill9384]

Won't it have weird taste though

[@radiantchristina]

i will try that for sure. I make cocada, a dessert which is one can sweetened condensed milk and one bag of sweetened coconut flakes..mix together , press into greased 8 x 8 glass baking dish and refrigerate overnight..cut into squares and enjoy ..it is one of my husband's favorites... i will try it with this and see if he notices the difference :)

[@marystestkitchen]

radiantchristina wow that sounds so simple but delicious! Thanks for sharing!

[@TheRonnette4]

Great recipe!!! Thanks for sharing.

[@marystestkitchen]

Thanks, dear :-)

[@abbykuo4884]

I made it! but I reduced it too much, It was too solid after I refrigerated it. the making process was so boring (took me about 30 min). but it had cured my condensed-milk-with-mantou craving since I have gone vegan. THANK YOU, MARY!!! best channel ever 😭

[@marystestkitchen]

Abby Kuo lol I have had that happen to mine as well. Better too thick than not thick enough though (for me) :-) Thank you for sharing, my dear. I am so happy that I helped you deal with your mantou and condensed milk craving!

[@janicehuang5493]

thanks for making healthy lifestyle so much easier ~~!! Love your channel, going to try the homemade tofu , soaking the beans now~~ and checking your other videos in the meantime :)

[@marystestkitchen]

[@cherry4honey]

Hi Mary, I am from HK and new to your channel, as well as veganism! I appropriate that you share some recipes for traditional HK/Chinese dishes.

[@bissen]

Patbingsu/Kakigoori/I-forget-what-it's-called-in-Chinese-and-other-languages comes to mind. Will remember this for summer.

[@TheGeoKit]

I used to eat it alone with a tablespoon and it's probably the only thing I missed from my previous lifestyle.. I am gonna try it right now.

[@falldog3572]

I just found a sweetened condensed vegan milk in an Asian market near me, immediately thought of this video, and felt compelled to say that it's Nature's Charm brand, is pretty good, and uses coconut cream. I think it was like $2.70 U.S.

[@catarinafaria3050]

wow! so easy! thank you so much for sharing 💖

[@marystestkitchen]

+catarina faria You're most welcome, dear. I'm glad you like it. Thanks for watching!

[@BlackStar-yk7iz]

I reduced the milk by half then added a load of soaked dates,then blended, it was like caramel.

[@TheCerealluvr]

Ohhhh I've GOT to try this for a special treat!

[@marystestkitchen]

+naturallysimple yess :-) Thanks for watching!

[@pollyannslappey1249]

I'm planning on using it to make fudge for the holidays.

[@marystestkitchen]

Yum! That's excellent! :-)

[@DoreenBellDotan]

Thank you for this. I've seen a number of recipes calling for condensed milk, just recently actually, and wished there was a Vegan alternative. Added to my VEGAN DRINKS board on Pinterest.

[@marystestkitchen]

Glad it was helpful!

[@catherineindia4571]

I have been wanting to make vegan caramels, not with coconut products. This will surely work. Thank you.

[@marystestkitchen]

Hope you like it!

[@MessyPaperCrafter]

This is exciting stuff! Mmmm!

[@marystestkitchen]

FruityFoodie Pretty exciting to me too!

[@cindyjune6490]

There is a brand called Nature's Charm sold at Sprouts that is Coconut based sweetened and condensed sold in California.

[@alithiadrew]

I’ve seen it at Whole Foods too.

[@rajwinder411]

can be added as an ingredient to make coconut candy. Glad I found this! :)

[@marystestkitchen]

Yes! :-) Glad you found it too

[@crazedanisa]

it is soooo sweet!!! can i cut down on the sugar??

[@Cherith44]

I absolutely love all the asian food culture that you explain.

[@anadd6195]

Using Eritritol works beautifully. I don't use this recipe but it's the same for any condensed milk. 1L milk takes 40 minutes to make but I make less when I'm in a bit more of a hurry x)

[@marystestkitchen]

Does it? That's good to know! Thanks, Ana!

[@caitjennings9517]

Yayyy I want to use this for a vegan no bake cheese cake and I am also gonna use your vegan graham crackers for the crust Mary

[@marystestkitchen]

That sounds super perfect! How wonderful it will be. Have you tried it yet?

[@nshvh]

yay for Australian sugar! glad I never have to worry about it

[@Ravenelvenlady]

I love it. Thank you.

[@Sochilinda]

thank you so much! I will try this! :D Btw, is it ok to store it in the fridge in a jar? for how long would stay fresh? thanks in advance.

[@Hannah-fh2jk]

+Sochilinda She said in the description box to keep it in the fridge for up to a week :)

[@Jilleyful]

Fudge!! I'm going to make fudge with it!!

[@mellonlord4616]

Thus is great. My husband is from the Philippines and he likes to mash avocado with condensed milk. He never eats avocado as a savory flavor. He only likes it sweet.

[@JoseDR19]

And I am from the Caribbean where we never eat avocado as a sweet dish, only savory (yummy). Yet, I made an avocado smoothy the other day and it was good. Because life is too short to not try different things haha :)

[@anniefrannie100]

I’m going to try donair sauce using this recipe, I’ll let you know how it goes

[@greenpeach20]

You know what: if you use coconut sugar and coconut milk, you might be able to get a super simple caramel sauce.......Will report back

[@RheRheSmily]

please let me know if it was nice?

[@greenpeach20]

RheRheSmily I'm embarrassed to admit I completely forgot about this until you commented, so thank you for that. Having said that, I went out and bought full fat coconut milk and coconut sugar and cooked it just as the condensed milk. I'm still waiting for it to cool, so I'm not positive about the texture just yet, but the taste? DELICIOUS! Once it's cool, I plan to put that over some Ben and Jerry's non-dairy Chunky Monkey and go to town! Give it a try, it tastes delicious.

[@RheRheSmily]

thanks great to know. i want to make some dairy free refined sugar free ice-cream. might also try an avocado one also

[@sandracarli1110]

I wouldn't use coconut milk. It contains a lot of saturated fat which is bad for the arteries. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKTNmXmVfdF5rtU

[@zsofiathompson7501]

You get caramel if you put the sugar in first and wait until it melts and turn yellow then out the hot milk in and mix

[@shirinnayebi6086]

Hi Mary! Subscribed! I'm 49 and just became vegan. I finally feel at peace with my life choices and thank you for helping me through this. Your recipes have helped me so much!!! One question when I made this and out in the fridge it crystallized. Do you have any idea what I did wrong? Thanks!

[@marystestkitchen]

Congrats on going vegan, my dear! I'm not sure how your condensed milk crystallized as it's never happened to mine. It can form a thin layer on the top but it can simply be mixed in. I suspect that uneven heating/ too much stirring can trigger crystallization as this is can be a problem when making dulce de leche.

[@shirinnayebi6086]

+Mary's Test Kitchen | Vegan Cooking yep I did both lol thanks I remade and is so delicious! Love your recipes!

[@marystestkitchen]

shirin nayebi Glad to hear it!

[@VeganPlanetIndia]

Wow amazing vegan recipe..

[@TheWarrrenator]

OMG! SO MANY PIES!

[@marystestkitchen]

TheWarrrenator ahahaha yes. The possibilities are amazing! :-) Thanks for the comment!

[@justamurmur]

Thank you so much for this!

[@marystestkitchen]

Just A Murmur You're welcome, my dear :-)

[@KateWiium]

is the soy milk optional or can you use other types of milk if they are not reduced fat? =)

[@PhobeBarrymore]

Maybe rice milk?

[@sophiadeng8889]

Yes you can, i tried it with almond milk

[@sophiadeng8889]

***** It was pretty good. Not as thick though but a good consistency

[@mypersawnaliteas]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYCYoKaBns19rK8 Gemma used coconut milk

[@kurohikes5857]

This is simply amazing!

[@SoFia-ev2rb]

I know its a bit late, like 2 years but, i guess you can use a bit of corn starch so it will get more dense for substitute thr plain sugar.

[@raynie999]

Omg I love you for this!!

[@marystestkitchen]

lol You're welcome, my dear!

[@LilTeaBag]

Wow! I wonder if we can make dulce de leche from that!! (Usually it's made from "cooked" condensed milk. Having the condensed milk can literally boiling for hours into water)

[@marystestkitchen]

+LilTeaBag yes!

[@passaggioalivello]

It's amazing spread on a soft warm bread with peanut butter and chocolate chip

[@marystestkitchen]

***** mMmmm I am craving that right now just because you mentioned it!!!

[@lamllemaussade]

That Carnation condensed soy milk seems to be available only in Australia. Bummer! I've used a similar method before, but I don't have the patience! I've also used cream of coconut (like Coco Lopez) as a good substitute for condensed milk, but I think it might have some additives in it. Thanks, Mary!

[@marystestkitchen]

lamllemaussade Yes, I was surprised to find that it seemed to be only in Aus! I have used coconut cream as a sub for condensed milk before too (like in pumpkin pie) but I find that I don't always love the taste of coconut in certain foods. In this case, my need for a certain taste outweighed my natural laziness ;-) Thanks for your lovely comment, dear

[@Mykasan]

is this liquidy or more like honey texture? i'm searching for a caramel ^^ i've made some and i'm waiting for it to cold down to fill my mason jar without breaking it.

[@ea4602]

I'm going to try it making coconut ice candy. Thanks

[@marystestkitchen]

Sounds great!

[@JPGFaria]

I'd use for doing vegan brigadeiros, a brazilians tradicional candy, thank u for the video :^)

[@marystestkitchen]

+João Pedro Guedes Faria I have never tried those but they sound amazing! Have fun making your brigadeiros! Thanks for the kind comment, dear.

[@ema.5899]

+João Pedro Guedes Faria the exact reason why I searched for the recipe

[@sady1139]

Mary's Test Kitchen | Vegan Cooking I made this before watching this video but the soy flavour was super strong, do you know why? It tasted a lot better when I made it the first time vegan with rice milk, even though it was low fat, all I did was double the rice milk, I don't remember what the recipe was though. It also tastes great with a little coconut milk

[@Lu-ro5vc]

exatamente a razão da minha procura haha, have you done it? how did they turn out?

[@Myomi1988]

yummy I just made it and it's delicious. I also tried your breakast pudding with it and it was great

[@marystestkitchen]

Myomi1988 Yay! I am so glad that you enjoyed the condensed milk and the breakfast pudding! :-) I had to google pat bingsu. It looks delicious. I love desserts like that because not only are they delicious, they are very nutritious too. Thanks for your lovely comment, dear.

[@caninedrill_instructor5861]

Hello Ms. Mary, I may try this method with green split pea milk

[@marystestkitchen]

green condensed milk? That sounds interesting!

[@yams4610]

Thank you so much!!!!!!!!! You are awesome :)

[@catarinafaria3050]

I did it! coconut condensed milk. so tasty! Used Koko milk.

[@marystestkitchen]

Nice!

[@catarinafaria3050]

Thank you dear. Happens that I really really don't like the taste of soya milk so I had to try this. All thanks to your recipe of corse. What I do believe the one with coco milk will get better with a little bit less sugar. Hugs 😊

[@thatlovelydancerIlao]

Yum. I use almond milk & honey or coconut sugar

[@marystestkitchen]

Sounds great!

[@Vipressinn]

hey, Mary! I would to see if this sweetened condensed milk works for traditional fudge. would you mind making a video of you using this with traditional fudge?

[@marystestkitchen]

+Jennica Steele I may try that one day. Thanks for your request, dear. I think somewhere down in the comments some viewers have tried fudge recipes and it did work!

[@natalielindskog1681]

Oh thank you so much for this! I live in Sweden and just recently went vegan and i'm so happy that i found this recipe so that I can veganise my homemade ice cream 😊

[@marystestkitchen]

[@fma6876]

thank you for this!!!!

[@marystestkitchen]

+FM A You're welcome, dear. Enjoy! :-)

[@raeealdwine9370]

Oooh - will be using this to make fridge cake :)

[@marystestkitchen]

Rae Ealdwine I had to look up "fridge cake." :-) Sounds fabulous, like a fudge. Thanks for the comment, dear

[@louiseheiwood2688]

that looks like a great ice cream topping, or use it to make cream soda ^-^

[@marystestkitchen]

Louise Heiwood nice suggestion!! I do use it sometimes on banana ice cream :-)

[@tamcon72]

Intriguing; thanks for posting : )

[@marystestkitchen]

tamcon72 I'm glad you find it interesting :-) Thanks for commenting, dear.

[@family-peace-love]

Looks amazing. However would it work with coconut sugar I try to avoid refined sugar

[@marystestkitchen]

veggielove84 As I mentioned in the video, you would not get the same result. However, theoretically, it should work though I suspect the final result will have a maltier taste and darker colour. Have fun experimenting and please comment back if you try it! :-)

[@shadgainz2513]

Lovely

[@MaoniMoana]

I'm not vegan but I'm doing it right now ^.^ Can't wait to taste it in a few minutes hehe

[@lollipop3336]

How was it?

[@DKsilverghost]

I didn't even know vegan condensed milk was a thing. I totally have to try and make brigadeiro (Brazilian chocolate balls) now!

[@marystestkitchen]

DKsilverghost brigadeiro sounds amazing! I had to look that up as I had never heard of it before. Thank you so much for commenting and sharing that idea

[@Clayton-Rose]

I didn't have soymilk on hand, so I used fatty coconut milk to make this with 1cup of sugar, and it tastes amazing! I tried making iced coffee with it, but it really doesn't mix well with cold liquid, so you get lumpy stuff at the bottom of the mug...does that happen with this too and you just gotta stir it good enough? Should probably let the hot coffee dissolve it first.

[@marystestkitchen]

Thanks for sharing, dear. The fat in the coconut probably is causing the issue; it won't mix well with the water in coffee, especially when cold. Mine dissolves fairly easily though I have to stir it a bit same as when I used to have the non-vegan version. I think your idea of dissolving it first would help but also using a blender could work too. Thanks very much for sharing your experience, dear :-)

[@Qochemist]

Can this work with any non dairy milk? It looks wonderful!

[@marystestkitchen]

qochemist I have only tried this with soy milk, but I have heard of people using almond and coconut milk. I would recommend using creamy milks such as those or cashew milk for their high protein/fat content which will result in the thick texture we're going for here. Happy experimenting, dear.

[@Qochemist]

can you use almond milk instead of soy? I will use it in substitute for making homemade sherbert

[@xHaniffax]

so theoretically....we could make fudge? :O

[@marystestkitchen]

+xHaniffax Yes :-)

[@Jilleyful]

I did make fudge! I used dairy free chocolate chips, and this recipe. The fudge turned out perfectly, and it was better than the non vegan variety!!

[@lottatroublemaker6130]

Jilleyful - 👏👏👏👏 Great to hear! Then it could work for Scottish tablet too, which is much like fudge, only hard and melts in your mouth, I LOVE it! Haven’t had it for years and years, would be sooooo fun to be able to make a vegan version just once! ☺️👏👍🙌😋

so many uses for this! I'm thinking vegan key lime pie.

[@tiffanygregory4362]

I use it for Thai tea and baked Mac and cheese

As a Vietnamese Canadian, I've missed iced coffee with condensed milk since turning vegan. Thanks for this Mary!

[@marystestkitchen]

You're very welcome, my dear! *high five* fellow Canadian :-)

[@czeckeredcat]

I would use vegan condensed milk to make Thai iced tea! Yum!

[@marystestkitchen]

Yum! Sounds perfect!

You need to make banoffee pie with this! This is the first thing that popped into my head when I saw your vid! And then share it with us...

[@marystestkitchen]

Kourti Marianthi lol Making my own condensed milk didn't occur to me until some UK vegans started posting their banoffee pie creations using store bought stuff that you can apparently get over there! One day I may that pie. This month, I'm a bit on sugar overload though. ahaha
