Harmless Harvest is expanding its portfolio of coconut-based food and beverage products with a trio of coconut desserts made with coconut meat. These new additions include dark chocolate coconut pudding, mixed berry coconut panna cotta and mango coconut panna cotta. These single-serve coconut-based desserts are as rich in color as they are in flavor.
The decadent plant-based desserts are USDA organic certified and they boast just eight to nine grams of sugar per serving. Jake Qian, director of innovation at Harmless Harvest, says "As category leaders in the plant-based foods industry, we’re uniquely poised to win in plant-based and vegan desserts, as well. Expanding into the dessert category is a very exciting move for us, as we are confident our superior taste and ingredient standards will truly ‘hit different’ with both our existing customer base and new consumers alike."
