To make this dessert accessible to those with dietary restrictions, there are a few ingredient substitutions that can be made. For a vegan version of the coconut panna cotta, replace gelatin with agar agar, a plant-based thickening agent. Additionally, for those with allergies or preferences, the tropical fruits can be substituted with other seasonal fruits like berries or stone fruits.
