Raw Vegan Cake, Recipe and Interview with Ioana Ginghina

Hello my dear ones

I’m really happy to see you again at “Wednesday’s Recipe”!

This week I have a surprise for you. I had a special guest in my kitchen. Ioana Ginghină, I am convinced that you all know her and that you read her posts on  http://ioanaginghina.ro/ 

Today we will make Raw Vegan Cake together. It sounds pretentious, but it is very easy to do and not expensive at all.

It’s sugar-free and flour-free, so it’s super healthy and nutritious.

It is a refreshing dessert, straight from the freezer.

Here is the video with the recipe explained and with all the discussion I had with Ioana, and below you have the written recipe.

We’ll make a two-layer Raw Vegan Cake.

We will need:

For the first layer:

• 250 grams of hydrated cashews (at least 2 hours)
• 50 grams of honey
• 50-70 grams of coconut oil.
• 100 ml (if needed, depending on the texture we get)

For the second layer (the pink one)

• 250 grams of hydrated cashews (at least 2 hours)
• 50 grams of honey
• 50-70 grams of coconut oil.
• 70 grams frozen fruits (we used cherries, but you can also use blueberries or strawberries)
• And forest fruits to decorate.

First, we make the white countertop. Put all the ingredients in a good blender (we had a thermo-mix) and let them mix well. When we have obtained a creamy paste, we put it in the forms and put it in the freezer for at least an hour.

Then we deal with the second countertop. We put in the blender all the ingredients (cashews, honey, coconut butter and frozen fruits) and leave them there until we get a paste.

We bring the forms from the freezer. We put the second layer. We put them in the fridge for at least another hour.

Then we take them out of the freezer, decorate them and enjoy them.

Simple, delicious and healthy.
