These chocolate berry bars are one of our absolute favorites! The coconut chocolate mixed with your choice of fruit and combined with the lightly sweetened almond flour crust is irresistible. And the best part, they are gluten-free, vegan, refined sugar-free, and Paleo so it fits everyone's needs without giving up a delicious and fresh flavor. (Photo & recipe inspo by: Bakerita)
