Here is a wonderfully delicious Lakanto summer time treat. Use the blueberries (my favorite), raspberries, and other fruits in season in your area along with bananas, kiwi, mango or other exotic fruits that you like. You can sweeten your fruits with Lakanto or just stick with the local seasonal fruits as they are. You can't go wrong with this recipe.
Here is one version of the recipe, but feel free to play with it by adding a little more Lakanto or fruits along with the Chocolate Mousse from our last post. Please let us know how you like it by putting your comments below. Enjoy!
