Chocolate Strawberry

Colorful, juicy and sweet. Strawberries are truly luscious. The strawberries we know and love originate from 18th century France when a hybrid of two species were mixed together.  This red fruit is an excellent source of vitamin C and a good source of manganese. They are more than 90% water and are low in carbohydrates. We combined nutritious strawberries with cocoa powder and other ingredients to create the chocolate strawberry smoothie. Chocolate strawberries are a savory treat enjoyed by many. Now everyone can enjoy this delicious combo in a dairy free and vegan snack with added protein!

Health Benefits of Strawberries

Strawberries rank in the top 20 fruits in antioxidant capacity. Antioxidants help boost your immune system and will reduce inflammation. Their beautiful red color comes from phytonutrients and flavonoids. According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine, several studies have linked the consumption of strawberries to prevention of inflammation disorders, oxidative stress, reduction of obesity and heart disease risk, as well as protection from different cancers. Strawberries are also low calorie. Roughly a quarter of the carbohydrate content of this fruit comes from fiber which is good for digestive health.
