Welcome to Day #6 of Chocolate and Coconut Theme Week.

Today's Lait Noix de Coco mini bars were from Cafe-Tasse (Belgium).

These creamy, sweet (35% cacao) milk chocolate confections were perfumed with coconut aroma and flavor. The miniature coconut milk bars provided a few small, sweet bites--just the right dose. A larger size bar this sweet would have been too much.

Welcome to Day #5 of Chocolate and Coconut Theme Week.

Today's mini muffin shaped Toasted Coconut Brownies were from Flax4Life (Bellingham, WA).
Flax4Life offers a line of gluten free flax muffins, granola, buns and brownies.

These moist and flavorful gluten free toasted coconut chocolate brownies were quite good, especially for gluten-free baked goods. They had a soft, loft to them that were lacking in early versions of gluten-free cakes and muffins. Fortunately, brownies don't seem to suffer much from lack of gluten.

And, yes, these Flax4Life brownies did contain flaxseeds...that added fiber, anti-oxidants and alpha linolenic acid (ALA), Omega 3 fatty acids and protein.
