Very tasty cold bread pudding! Surprisingly not too sweet and nice tropical flavor. I used recipe #505414 for the bread and it was great. Thanks for sharing the recipe! Made for ZWT9, The Apron String Travelers

Lovely Pina Colada flavor and makes for a nice light dessert. Made as posted but next time will go with with white bread slices instead of the whole wheat. The skim milk works but if I make it for family or friends would go with the 1 or 2 percent. Thank you for a touch of the Caribbean on a cold winter day here in Saskatchewan.

I love anything Pina Colada flavoured & this is no exception. I made this as a sweet treat breakfast but used Splenda in place of sugar. It made for a lovely cool brekky on a hot morning & I imagine would be a great refreshing dessert after a spicy meal. Thanks for posting!
