Nutritional values

Fruity and chocolaty at the same time: The tropical fruits provide more than two thirds of the daily vitamin C requirement, while the chocolate cream with milk and cream provides bone-strengthening calcium.

The orange liqueur does not have to be - it can also be non-alcoholic. With an orange syrup from the drinks department, the dessert tastes completely alcohol-free.
