SpamellaB has done it again and created this fantastic ‘ice cream’ cake featuring our CherryActive Tart Cherry Juice concentrate.

Serves: 4-6 people

Ingredients:

For the base: –

75g Rolled oats
50g Ground almonds
3 tbsp Cacao or cocoa powder
2 tbsp Coconut oil
2 tbsp Maple syrup
For the filling: –

3 Frozen bananas
3 tbsp Active Edge CherryActive Tart Cherry Juice Concentrate
2 tbsp Maple syrup
5 tbsp Cocoa powder
10 Cherries, pitted and halved

To decorate: –

Fresh cherries
50g Dark chocolate, broken up into pieces
1 tsp Coconut oil
Cacao nibs
Flaked almonds

Method:

  1. First make the base: Mix together the oats, ground almonds, cacao/cocoa powder in a bowl. Melt the coconut oil and pour in along with the maple syrup then mix together to combine. Press into a lined 18cm loose-bottom cake tin.
  2. Place the frozen bananas, CherryActive, maple syrup and cocoa powder in a blender and whizz up until smooth. Stir in the cherries evenly then spoon over the base, smoothing out the top. Freeze for at least 4 hours.
  3. When ready to serve, pop out the freezer 5-10 minutes beforehand. Gently melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil.
  4. Remove the cake from the tin and place on a serving board or plate. Drizzle over the chocolate then top with cherries, flaked almonds and cacao nibs. Cut into 4-6 slices then serve straight away!
