Allow me to introduce you to my creation of perfect Wedding cake or just an ordinary Monday or Sunday treat.


Raw Avocado chocolate & raspbery cheesecake

Let me take you to the begining...


I am about to get married to my best friend and have a wedding of my dreams: white fluffy dress, beach, surfboard arch, lots of flowers and a few closest friends to spend my day with.

Even our wedding is pretty small and private, Wedding cake is a must.

So that's where the dilema starts. I as a Nutritionist and a total foodie can't just have a cake who someone made. I need to make sure the cake has all my favourite ingredients in it and is also nutritious, without refined sugar leaving you taste of heaven in your mouth.


So the decision was made and I started creating layer by layer my DREAM WEDDING CAKE...



Fisrt the BASE> Must be raw and nutty but a bit of oriental, to represent our passion for traveling.


Second layer CHOCOLATE>

Definately chocolate. There is no wedding cake without chocolate. It must be decadent but light and low in sugar and saturated fat. So the only option was an avocado chocolate mouse.


Third layer RASPBERRIES>

It's summer after all and Raspberry cheesecake is everyone's favourite. But having cream cheese layer after already rich base and chocolate layer could be a killer. Why not to try to go raw cashew then?


Top layer COLOUR>

Raspbery chia seed jam, no sugars, no preservatives and gorgeus color, just a nice finishing touch to my cake.


This is how my Wedding cake was born and now my only hope is that everyone enjoy it as much as I do <3
