User Reviews
Really nice chocolate flavor! Smooth enough to spread on toast, and my kids love it too.
Tastes good and healthier than regular chocolate spreads, but the grainy texture isn’t my favorite. I’ll try to make it smooth next time.
Simple and tasty! It’s my go-to for toast and pancakes now, really feels homemade
Will definitely try it tomorrow! Looks Delicious
