Delicious Creamy Chocolate Dream Cake. I've made this recipe for a few years, it's very popular as a birthday cake. This was for a special lady on her birthday. Unfortunately coconut does not agree with her, so I have slightly modified the recipe to exclude coconut, coconut nectar and coconut oil. 😋 still super delicious and nutrient dense. Using organic wholesome ingredients.
VEGAN - GLUTENFREE - REFINEDSUGARFREE - RAW

My Story

I am passionate about life, plant based food, caring and sharing and healing and many things actually. Cake Queen specializing in amazing delicious Raw Vegan Cakes. Founder of Raw Balance in Taupo.

The name Purple Cat chose me; the colour purple representing third eye, magic, intuition. Cat represents Homely, Cuddles, Love and independence. My father always had cats around when I was growing up.

Purple Cat in Chinese/Japanese Lucky cat is Beauty, Health and Longevity, Knowledge, Wisdom and Intuition.
