For example, McCormick Pure Vanilla Extract contains vanilla bean extractives in water, alcohol (35%), and corn syrup. Not sure why corn syrup is added, but it's not low-carb friendly.

What kind of vanilla r u looking at? I don’t know of any vanilla that has sugar. Vanilla is made from vodka (or similar alcohol) and vanilla beans. No sugar. ????

Rice milk is fine. You could use coconut cream instead of the regular whipping cream.

1. Can I use rice milk instead of almond or coconut milk?
2. Is there a dairy free option I can use instead of heavy whipping cream?

I only ask because rice milk is the only milk alternative I can stomach, and I just can't use milk/cream for anything unless I want to get really sick. Which, obviously, I really, REALLY don't want.

It's just a wooden backboard. I do love the look of a wood counter, though.

I'm not a fan of video either, but some people do like to see the process.

Thanks Sandy!

For mocha, I'd use regular cocoa instead of dark and add either a syrup or instant coffee/espresso powder.
