To assemble parfait, alternate layers of granola, the chia pudding, dairy-free yogurt, and the charcoal nicecream in a jar. Top with fresh berries and serve immediately.
Notes
- *Activated charcoal powder is tasteless and is used to create a dramatic dark hue. You can find it at most grocery and health stores.
- **If you don't have black sesame powder, you can make your own by blitzing toasted black sesame seeds in a coffee grinder or food processor until fine.
