Froconut by EllyJoy X Cocoa Mester

Coconut and chocolate bundled up an a super hipster, Instgram perfect package- whats not to love?

Cocoa Mester and Froconut teamed up and like any other trendy event in Sheffield, it was hosted in S3. Cocoa Mester permanently have a store in Krynkl down at Shalesmoor which is where this was held. Krynkl itself is really bloody cool, if you've never heard of it you should definitely check it out. It is a bunch of re purposed storage containers and they've been turned in to a restaurant, yoga studio and rooftop bar- but back to the point of this post...

There were three different flavours to choose from all of which sounded delicious. I opted for Persian  Petal because the rose petals sparked my interested, they kind of tasted like Turkish Delight, it was amazing. The froconut itself is kind of like a coconutty, vegan Mr Whippy. The coconut that it was served in can be repurpused which I'm all about., you can dry it out and use it as a bowl. Elly has a few other suggestions on her Instagram too.

N o W a s t e 🌿People often ask what they can do with their coconut shells...we hate waste and there are so many different ways to use them! 1) Take home and use a sharp knife to carve out the flesh 2) Roast the flesh and add it to your smoothies, granola and even curries 3) Once the flesh it out, use the coconut husk as a bowl or cup 4) even fill the coconut with suet and hang outside for the birds 🕊

The chocolate shard was probably the nicest vegan chocolate I've ever had. It wasn't super bitter but it wasn't slimy and overly sweet like Ombar can be. I'll be paying Cocoa Mester a visit to stock up on some sweet tooth fixes.
