We’re playing catch up with The Collaborative, since they’ve been transitioning their U.S. product line quite a bit this past year. They’ve gone heavy into single-serve plant-based desserts, which are perfect for lunchboxes and spontaneous dairy-free dessert cravings. They renamed their “little pots” to Chocolate Ganache. And The Collaborative Pudding Cups, covered in this post, have popped up in vegan chocolate pudding, vanilla rice pudding, and double chocolate mousse.
The Collaborative Pudding & Mousse Cups are Made Just for You
The ingredients for The Collaborative chocolate pudding and mousse cups are quite similar to their Chocolate Ganache ingredients. But they’re tweaked to create slightly different consistencies, and come in larger cups. And the vanilla version is a new experience altogether! If you buy and try these vegan desserts, be sure to leave your unbiased rating and review below!
