FAQs

Can I use dairy-free options?

Yes! You can substitute the milk and ice cream with dairy-free alternatives, like almond milk and coconut milk ice cream.

How do I make it less sweet?

To reduce the sweetness, simply cut back on the amount of syrup you use or skip the whipped cream and sprinkles.
