    Hello, is there a substitute for the quark? I want to like it but I’m really not a fan. I don’t if it means a few extra syns x

    • Fatgirlskinny says:

      The quark is being used to create a cake mixture, you cannot taste it in the cake, it is disguised very well.
      The same as you add egg but the mixture doesn’t taste of raw egg 🙂 Give it a try..
      Failing that you could try fat free natural yogurt but I cannot comment how it would work.

  2. Macy says:

    What sweetener can I use that I dont have to order off the internet. Is the sweetener even necessary?? Thx

    • Fatgirlskinny says:

      Hi there
      You can buy granulated sweetener in any standard supermarket.. i.e candarel, or supermarket own make.
      I would suggest using the sweetener yes

  3. Niki says:

    So we don’t have quark in supermarkets in New Zealand! What can be substituted?

  4. Clare Bowyer says:

    I made this tonight and had it on its own straight out of the mug and still a bit gooey. It was AMAZING, I loved it! Cant believe its only 2.5 syns!! Cant wait to try different serving suggestions and flavoured options.
    Thankyou for the recipe ? x

  5. Fiona says:

    Could I use 11g of cocoa powder instead of the options, thanks

    • Fatgirlskinny says:

      You are welcome to try but would need to Syn accordingly.. I don’t feel it would work out the same however. Options contains more than just cocoa powder. The other ingredients help this case to work.

  6. Kathy Honey says:

    Wow just had this for lunch, I enjoyed it

  7. Katherine Jarratt says:

    The options must make the difference I think. Used a different hot chocolate and it was still chocolate omelette. Much more anemic looking than the pics here. Not terrible but not sure it was worth the syns.
