At some point, we all need a moment of peace and quiet to relax, to gather our thoughts and enjoy the calm.
Usually, these are the lazy Sunday afternoons when all the work is done and it's time to enjoy the latest issue of a good magazine, watch a movie, and chat with some friends.
And what could accompany those moments better than a warm cup of cacao milk and a truffle?
Really, nothing beats that!
The raw nut cacao milk recipe is gluten-free, sugar-free, soy-free and lactose-free.
