My grandfather loves this kind of putting I made it for him right before he died I loved him so much I make it every week for parties or Desert I'll make it

what mold. type kind size. lost at the first line need equipment list

This was weird, kind of gross mouthfeel, and not really very sweet. The instructions aren't great. The result is edible, but it definitely isn't like any kind of tapioca pudding I've ever had.

This is my go-to tapioca pudding recipe except that I leave out the gelatin and orange peel since I'm looking for a classic tapioca pudding not a "jello"

The instructions on the box are perfect.
