    Is coconut milk the same as coconut cream?

    1. Jody Allen Avatar

      No it is different – coconut milk and coconut cream are both available at most supermarkets.

    What is a good replacement for the self-raising flour?

    1. Stay at Home Mum Avatar

      You can use plain flour with baking powder added – 2 teaspoons of baking powder per cup of plain flour.
