A rich, decadent and refreshing fudge boosted with a layer of the seaweed spirulina. The only sweetener used is xylitol. This gives a cooling taste that works well with the mint and doesn’t leave your teeth feeling sticky after eating. A few cacao nibs gives a crunchy texture.
It will last for several weeks in the fridge, but mine is always eaten after a few days.
