Im sorry I cant answer that question.Being that I usually by it at a Kosher grocery-I never looked out for it at the supermarket-good luck!
Is custard available commercially? Where would I find it in the supermarket? Will I need to go to a kosher market to find it?
I think it should be ok if its wrapped well
Just add it in,you do not have to make the pudding.
Enjoy!
I’m confused about the instant vanilla pudding. Do I need to make the pudding or just pour in the a couple pouches of the mix to equal half a cup? Thanks
