About
Just because you eat healthy, doesn’t mean food has to taste healthy. That’s where these decadent wonders come in. With their mousse-like centre and creamy chocolate banana taste, they will leave you satisfied, without the guilt.
Loaded with nutrients, they make a great snack or breakfast for the whole family. I also enjoy them as a post-workout protein meal instead of a shake to switch it up!
