With this recipe, my good friend Zarina from @zarskitchen reminded me that hibiscus flower is not only a good addition to your diet because of its amazing properties; it can also be the perfect ingredient for finger-likin desserts.
Zarina created these little bites of heaven, creamy on the inside with a tart, cranberry-like flavour of the SACO hibiscus flower, and a gorgeous coconut coating on the outside.
The combination is just superb.

INGREDIENTS:
• 200g White chocolate coarsely chopped
• 60ml Double cream
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract

2. Stir in 25g of the shredded coconut and vanilla extract
3. Set aside and wait a few minutes until the mixture cools slightly so when you add hibiscus flowers the white chocolate does not turn pink, mix until incorporated
4. Refrigerate for 4 hours until mixture is firm
5. Place remaining shredded coconut in a bowl
6. Take the chocolate mixture out of the fridge and form tiny balls with your hands
7. Roll each ball in coconut and place on a tray in the fridge until firm
