Honey-sweetened White Chocolate Cranberry Bark Recipe. Matcha Maca Fat Bomb Fudge. The fat bomb fudge that beats them all…melt in the mouth, naturally sweet, incredibly satisfying with a beautiful buttery undertone.

This week my kiddos were looking like they might be coming down with something, and they were not sleeping very well to boot! So I wanted to come up with something to help them sleep and boost their immune system. I whipped up some tart cherry and elderberry gummies!
