Bowl of Heaven

Time: 10 Minutes
Serves: 1 x 14 fl oz
Difficulty: Easy

When a recipe comes together, the amount of joy and satisfaction that it brings is often overlooked. We compare it to the happiness felt when watching kittens and puppies running in slow motion. At least that’s what we wanted to emulate with this Pitaya bowl, and if we may say so ourselves, we totally NAILED it.

At first bite, you’re welcomed with the refreshing, perfectly light taste of Pitaya followed by rich, creamy banana/chocolate bliss that leaves you enjoying an aftertaste of raspberry sweetness. & don’t get us started on the toppings… an explosion of strawberry, banana, chocolate, and peanut butter that had us thinking, “this is actually what heaven tastes like.” We don’t want to brag, but some of our staff compared it to 18th-century French poetry. All in all, look no further than this Bowl of Heaven to sweep you off your feet this Valentine’s Day.
