Does anyone have a recipe for rice pudding or tapioca pudding with the
taste and texture of Cozy Shack™ brand pudding?

Thanks, regards,
Bob

No gelatin. It does have egg in it, like a custard.

They make chocolate? I didn't need to know that...

Does it have guar or xanthan gum? Just a long shot.

No. I think it does have "modified food starch (tapioca)" in the
tapioca pudding.

I much prefer tapioca pudding to rice pudding.
This is the recipe I use:
PEARL TAPIOCA PUDDING

1/2 C. pearl tapioca
2 C. milk
2 eggs
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 C. milk
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Soak tapioca overnight

Cook tapioca and the 2 C.
milk in top of double boiler
until tapioca becomes clear.

Mix eggs and sugar together and thin with
the 1/4 C. milk.

Cook till thick and add vanilla
---
It may be difficult to find real tapioca, most Indian groceries sell
sego palm pearls in assorted sizes... I prefer medium.

We've all been waiting with bated breath since 2004 to see your
response.

Perhaps you should switch to Google Groups.

I never look at the dates of posts... and tapioca hasn't changed for
hundreds of years.

Jess Sayin sez I posted my tapioca pudding recepie yesterday. Cozy
Shack is okay in a pinch and if in a hurry but in no way compares to
homemade; with real tapioca, fresh whole milk, fresh whole eggs, real
vanilla, real sugar, and full measure of ingredients with no fillers.
Cozy Shack likely uses sego palm starch rather than real tapioca,
powdered eggs, powdered milk, vanilla flavoring, artificial sweetener,
plus stabilizers/chems, and Cozy Shack is old when you buy it from the
refrigerator case, and expensive for that wee little bit in a teensy
plastic cup that also polutes. It's very easy to make the real deal,
keeps well in your home fridge and can even be frozen in portions like
ice cream.

That's total BS, Sheldon. I bought a container of Kozy Shack just last week

Ingredients:
- reduced fat milk
- cane sugar
- tapioca
- egg whites
- modified tapioca starch

contains less than 2% OF some other ingredients.

It's a 22 oz container with lid that's good to save for freezing things
later on.
