You know, sometimes it’s like the ingredients in my fridge are trying to tell me something. Like when the raspberries were sitting next to the cashews and the vanilla powder. Aha! A new dessert was born… and it was a hit at my Raw High Tea last weekend too! Base 3/4 cup raw almonds 3/4…
Sweet Treats
white chocolate and lemon slice
You may have noticed in a recent post that I’ve been hard at work lately, coming up with a dairy free white chocolate recipe. Well, now that I’m happy with it, the possibilities are endless!

white chocolate coconut rough with pomegranates
gluten free, dairy free, cane sugar free I recently picked up a packet of Morlife pomegranate seeds and OMG… what an awesome flavour and texture!
