Nutritional values

The dessert gleams all in white - just like the model from French cuisine called "Blanc manger". And it tastes just as good, but contains much less fat. Because here, soured milk replaces a large part of the cream! The fruit mix provides plenty of vitamin C.

Already in the Middle Ages, princes and nobles enjoyed the snow-white, so-called "Mandelsulz" in this country - at that time, however, not as a dessert but as a hearty side dish. We prefer the more modern sweet variety! If you want to save sugar, just leave out a part of it.
