Nutrition Tropical Creme Desert Bars Essay

vanilla extract, 1 tsp. lecithin granules, appropriate preservative -- flavors to be determined. The product has no lactose, is sugar free, and with the coconut and almond milk, already has the taste of tropical drinks -- with the addition of pineapple, strawberry, mango or guava, and banana, or a combination, there would be even more tropical flavoring. The desert could be made in cups, larger containers, or with the use of a low-calorie "crust" as a tropical desert sandwich. Several permutations of "deserts" could be made, including a frozen "sorbet" version using the discarded 1/2 shells of coconuts used for processing coconut products. Labeling -- 240 grams, 1 cup, about 2 servings
