Summer dessert ..... berries

It's not something you hear often, here, in Victoria  BC - but today I heard a number of people say  "Boy, is it ever  hot."  It was likely about 24 degree Celcius.  In the sun.  So I had this cool and simple dessert.  Local strawberries,  blueberries and raspberries.  In coconut milk (canned, organic, with nothing added but organic guar gum) with a topping of two large scoops of plain yogurt (again, nothing added.)  And a few chunks of cocoa mass (chocolate one step along from being a cocoa bean).  The flavours of the fruit remained distinct on the tongue without the cloying effects of sugar; the tang of the yogurt enhanced the natural sweetness of the fruit;  the coconut milk offered a creamy richness;  the chocolate - well, its intensity  complimented and was complemented by the other ingredients.
