Tropical Traditions Coconut Peanut Butter Giveaway

Posted in Gluten Free, and Reviews

Coconut + Peanut Butter = Yuuummm!  Okay, so maybe that’s just how I feel about this coconut peanut butter.  When my jar of Tropical Traditions Coconut Peanut Butter arrived, it was runny.  (This was expected due to our high temps.)  You see, just like the coconut oil, the coconut peanut butter has a low melting point.  What this means is you can create some healthy delicious treats.  **grin** My first test was to drizzle some of the liquid coconut peanut butter over some vanilla ice cream.  Once it hit the ice cream, the coconut peanut butter set to create a…
