Embarking on a healthier lifestyle can be a little tricky. From adapting to a new strict diet, to finding an effective workout routine, we understand it might be difficult to give up certain things we like, including delicious foods we enjoy.

This is what  Viviana Sarmiento, a Colombian chef and entrepreneur from Los Angeles, realized, as she embarked on her own journey. “Having a sweet tooth myself and dying to find desserts that were tasty, healthy and functional, I came up with my own,” Viviana said to HOLA USA.

Using her business administration background and passion for baking and creating new recipes, Viviana founded   The Kind Dessert  , offering an innovative option and showing a healthy approach to delicious and flavorful desserts, like the Hazelnut Cacao Butter, Fearless Peanut Pecan Butter, or the Thriving Cashew Pistachio Butter.

“Made with organic ingredients and adaptogens such as Reishi, Chaga and Lion’s Mane,” Viviana created delectable vegan recipes with no sugar, gluten or dairy, with ingredients that promise to be the perfect compliment for a healthier lifestyle, easing stress and anxiety, combating fatigue, and enhancing mental performance.
