sharing raw, vegan recipes and advice

i created this recipe out of a need for something green for dessert for Christmas eve dinner. turns out this was the perfect idea! tasty, quick and easy as pie!

I made this cake for my birthday last week, and my raw friends found it really delicious. I like it too, because I love the combination of bananas and chocolate. If you do not like bananas, you do not have to include them.

While making the cake, you can enjoy the "leftovers" as delicious raw drinks: The water from the 2 young coconuts, as well as the soaking water from the dates which is nice and sweet.

BTW, what is the difference between a blender and a food processor?

i found a whole jar of tropical traditions coconut cream in my pantry, and was in the mood for something special.
this recipe was inspired by the vivapura website's recipe for white bark.

I was at whole foods and they had a bunch of beautiful young coconuts, so i figured it was the time to experiment... and all four i bought were perfect, so i had a lot of material to work with!
i made one main batch and separated it into different types. you could halve it to make just one type if you like.

the main, uncultured batch tasted very pleasantly just like melted ice cream from One Lucky Duck cafe. amazing! and the cultured batch tasted like a slightly fizzy and creamy coconut milk (better than the canned!)

(i keep trying to add a pic but its not working)

I serve this over kelp noodles, "teriyaki" almonds, chopped carrots, broccoli, green onion and snap peas. Really tasty.
Adjust the measurements to your liking. They are not exact, but they're pretty close.
