Steri Stumpie has proven to be one of Mzansi’s most loved brands and while many enjoy the flavoured milk beverage as a delicious treat on its own, it’s proven to be quite a useful ingredient in a variety of delectable dishes as well.
The brand, which celebrated it’ 50th birthday Steri-bration this year after a two-year delay of its celebrations as a result of the pandemic, is the secret ingredient in Cassidy Nicholson’s famous chocolate mousse recipe. The online personality, who has racked up hundreds of thousands of followers thanks to her alter-ego Constantia Mom, recently shared a clip of her making the popular dessert – which has become a viral hit.
“I have always loved the Steri Stumpie brand,” Cassidy shares. “I have such fond memories of my childhood drinking Steri Stumpies – usually after a sports game and my dad always told me not to tell my mom. It was our delicious little secret!
She adds “Basically, my childhood was all about Steri Stumpie. They taste like HEAVEN which is why I loved adding the drink into dishes like this chocolate mousse. I really enjoyed making this recipe. It is so simple and so easy which, if you know me and baking, that’s what it needs to be!”
