My review: cocoa paste & coconut manna

I'll continue food theme today :)

Cocoa paste

Navitas Naturals, Cacao Paste, Raw Chocolate Paste, 16 oz (454 g)

Who tasted a chocolate with 90% of cocoa? And 99% of it? This paste is almost the same)) I mean that the taste is very similar. But it's even harder then chocolate, it is more fragile, and not a soft as butter. Of course, you don't need to eat this paste, it's for cooking  the different kinds of chocolate desserts. Well, there is not any harmful sugars as in ordinary chocolate. And the quality of the cocoa ... I do not know how to explain ... but if you melt a piece of pasta, you will sniff the  amasing smell of cocoa as in the courts of French kings) 


It can be ordered here

Another interesting product is 

Coconut Manna Nutiva, Coconut Manna, 15 oz (425 g)

To be honest, I'm in general not been spoiled by the products of the coconut, so I thought this manna is something like cereal or pasta), but it is not. I had to split it off from the jar with a knife or to melt it)) 

It's very tasty! As a coconut oil with some coconut flakes, but the flavor and taste is better. At first I ate it with a spoon, then decided to use it in some desserts. And here is it ;)
