These two Superfood Macaroons from Raw Energy and Life were made from unsweetened coconut, agave nectar, cacao, vanilla extract, goji berries and a touch of sea salt.

The Superfood Blonde Macaroon contained ground almonds, cacao nibs, and mesquite pod powder which gave it a smoother, almost smoky flavor. It seemed less acidic and sweet than its Chocolate sibling -- that contained a bit more cocoa powder (and no almonds).

Yes, both raw, vegan pressed rounds were fun to try; however, the Blonde Macaroon with almonds and cacao nibs was my favorite of the two.

Today was Day #7 of Chocolate, Coconut and Vanilla Theme Week.
