About

This is the perfect Winter treat when you need a sweet treat or a fat-heavy snack to hold you over. Many people think that cranberries can only be eaten when dried and sweetened, or cooked down into cranberry sauce, but did you know you can also eat them raw? Their tartness brings a nice contrast to the fattiness of the cacao butter and coconut.
