I would really like to know calorie content and serving size.
YES! 🙂
Thank you for your comment! This is something that we are interested in as well. This recipe is well liked when sampled our customers in Ventura. We will update this post when that information is calculated. In the meantime – we hope you try it and love it as much as we do! 🙂
For the topping, it says "1/2 water". What is the unit of measure? A teaspoon? A cup?
Thanks.
Hi! Sorry about that! It was 1/4 cup of water! I fixed it on the post as well. Thank you for catching that! 🙂 oops!
Do you sell this in your store (ventura or toaks)?
Hi! We used to in Ventura but we haven't for about a year now. We'll be sure to let everyone know if we start these guys back up again! 🙂 Thanks for reading!
I need ti know how many servings this recipe serves and how much is the sugar content is per a slice. How many people does the recipe serve. Looks. Fantastic. Thank you. Will it be sold in the new Lassens iin T oaks. My daughter has a special Birthday coming. Up. How long does it stay good in the fridge or do I need to leave frozen.
