Recommendations for doshas:
Vata: It is a good dessert for vata. Use carob instead of cocoa, or half and half.
Pitta: It is s a suitable dessert for this dosha as well. Serve with berries, coconut
flakes, and fresh mint.
Kapha: Combined with a healthy low fat lunch with vegetables, protein, one
portion of this dessert will not impact kapha negatively.
