Now that it is officially summer, a wonderful and super easy dessert to shine even on a special occasion.
What I like most about this recipe is that we can add ingredients that are good for you without anyone noticing. Here I combined the mixture - Beleza Pura , for a daily dose of collagen and Beauty Drops to strengthen connective tissue and bring more firmness and elasticity (after all, desserts can be good!).
