Coconut candy bar - vegan

Summer, sunshine, a light breeze blowing through your hair and a cold coconut chocolate bar for dessert.

It brings back memories and holiday feelings in me. With you, too?

The well-known chocolate bars with coconut are real calorie bombs and are full of unpronounceable ingredients. But we have the solution: just do it yourself!

It's actually very easy and definitely doesn't require any training as a confectioner :)

These bars also have an extra layer of hemp seeds, almonds and chia seeds, so they're packed with omegas and protein.
