This is one of my favourite desserts to make and eat ! A guaranteed crowd pleaser is this gluten free, dairy free, and refined sugar free Chocolate Hazelnut Tart.

One of the main ingredients that makes this dessert so chocolatey and nutritious is Cacao.

Cacao is a natural, vegan source of magnesium and iron – both essential minerals for during and after pregnancy. Cacao also contains powerful antioxidants, including flavonoids such as anthocyanidin and methylxanthine which assist in neutralising free radicals, increasing metabolism and naturally stimulating the body.
