This healthy yet indulgent dessert combines the creaminess of ripe avocados with the richness of dark chocolate. The result is a luscious, guilt-free mousse that will satisfy your chocolate cravings. In our store we have few varieties of this deliciousness : as a chocolate avocado and matcha mouse in a jar,
and as a chocolate avocado pizza.
