Are you needing a little bro-mance in your bro-coli relationship?

Any good truffle starts with a good ganache. Of course a ganache is made from melted chocolate and cream. So how does one make a dairy-free and vegan ganache that tastes at least as good as the cream based one? Well the answer of course is activated watermelon seeds! Watermelon seeds are white in colour,

This yummy Vegan Raw Chocolate Ganache Tart has the hallmarks of many great raw desserts – it is both deliciously rich and deeply satisfying (in the sense that you will not overindulge). This is because it is not only packed full of whole foods such as banana and dried sour cherries, activated pecans, activated almonds,

This Vegan Raw Caramelised Onion Tart is the slightly more in depth grown up cousin to our recipe for the Vegan SpringRaw Quiche.

Nothing matches the protein, fat and neutral flavour profile of cow’s milk like Brazil nut milk. And it also tastes brilliant in iced coffee. What’s not to

I cannot lay claim to this flourless chocolate brownie recipe. I cannot even lay claim to cooking this dish. It is a recipe that my lovely lady makes when she bows to my constant haranguing for her to whip it up – which unfortunately is not EVERYDAY as I would like! She has tried making

Another raw recipe for you all! I just can’t get enough of them at the moment. Not only because I happen to have a pantry full of ‘raw’ ingredients, but also because they are so easy to make and taste sooo delicious (and healthy). This vegan raw chocolate brownie certainly takes the cake! I had some of

This raw vegan blueberry chocolate tart is very tasty yet healthy. The blueberry topping is made using a very similar technique as the popular recipe for Raw Vegan Chocolate Gelato/Mousse and the base is very similar to the one used in the delicious Little Bird recipe for Summer Berry & Cream Choc Tart. Two very good techniques
