Blacker the Berry Valentine’s Tart

“Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice. I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots.” - Tupac Shakur 

From the 1929 novel by Wallace Thurman to the infamous line by Pam Grier in Foxy Brown— the saying has made its way through our culture. I love us. I love black women, every day. Our limited edition white chocolate, raspberry tart is a salute to my forever friend who was lost in a domestic dispute on February 14, 2013. “Peach” what I called her— was obsessed with this tart. I never got a chance to make it for her, but, every day I wish I did.

Included is a plant based collagen so this treat will make you feel as good as black women look every single day. 

“Valentine’s Day isn't just about romantic relationships but also a day to celebrate the multi-faceted relationships with numerous people in our lives, particularly my friendships with the amazing black women in my life. My black feminist identity makes it a day to love and honor the black women who nurture and care for me year-round.” - Jazmine Walker 

In a society that aims to suppress our visibility and definitions of self, it is essential for black women to create safe spaces where we can affirm, cope and resist a white and male dominated world (hooks 1992; Wingfield 2008)
