  1. Where do you get Toffee Flavdrops (or equivalent) in America? You use them all the time and I always feel like I’m missing out.

    I don’t have banana whey. Could I sub for vanilla or other flavor whey? I really want to make this and don’t want to wait to order new POW. Please help!

    Goji berries and I don’t get along. Are they necessary? Is there a sub?

    • Hi Hi,

      I don’t think you can get toffee flavdrops in the US BUT!!! there’s LOTS of flavoring syrups available for example at amazon (sugar-free stuff). If you can’t or don’t wanna get any that’s fine though, just use some stevia instead or leave that bit out.

      Definitely use vanilla whey 🙂

      Instead of the gojis you could use some dates?

  2. I’m a little bit confused.. with 2 cooked beets as ingredients of the recipe, I would expect the cake to be.. of a purple color?
