This cake is as amazing as it looks. The taste and the image go together so so well, they are in perfect sync. A crunchy sweet base, topped with a super creamy dark chocolate fudge and a zesty, aromatic and refreshing dark forest fruits syrup. If you’re looking to impress this is an elegant and decadent cake for the most refined palates.

Ingredients

For the crust
  • 300gr solomon dates
  • 100gr crunchy muesli
  • 200gr pecan nuts
For the dark chocolate fudge
For the dark forest fruits syrup:
  • 200gr forest fruits (think juicy berries)
  • 1 TBS raw honey

Instructions

  1. All you need to do is mix in a food processor all the ingredients of the crust, then take it out and mix it more with your hands, till it becomes non sticky.
  2. Push it on the bottom of a baking cake ring evenly with your fingers.
  3. For the cream, blend all the ingredients together till they for a beautiful thick cream. Spread this cream on top of the crust and let it sit in the freezer at least 1/2 hour. Meanwhile you prepare the syrup.
  4. For the syrup place juicy black forest berries in a blender with the liquid raw honey and blend into a syrupy puree.
  5. Take your cake from the freezer and remove the ring. Place it on your desired plate and top it with the forest fruit syrup. Because I had extra dough from the crust, I made little balls and placed them on top of the cake and sprinkled some more cacao powder.
