Desserts should make people happy! Raw desserts don’t carry the guilt factor of most commonly prepared desserts because they are made without any of those less-than-healthy ingredients
|
Choosing vegan, organic and fair-trade foods has a major impact on the planet and in turn the wellfare of all beings nourished and supported by this planet.
I want to be proud of my existence on this earth. I want to make a difference!
I’ve always been fascinated with all expressions of cooking but desserts in particular have a special place in my heart. Each of them includes the most alkaline ingredient of all – LOVE!"
Desserts in the raw are done with fruit in its ripe, organic, bursting-with-flavour wholeness. Ingredients we use are fresh, unprocessed, in their natural, nutrient-rich state. We use alternative sweeteners such as agave syrup, dates and yacon-syrup. They are natural, lower on the glycemic index and delicious. All desserts are divinely decadent, with simplicity and elegance in their wholesomeness that only Mother Nature could provide.
For many people, these are the only kinds of desserts to eat. Those who are lactose intolerant, diabetic, or allergic to wheat gluten find raw desserts to be a godsend. People with these conditions are increasing in number as our bodies react to all the processed high-glycemic sugar, wheat and pasteurised dairy.
One may choose raw desserts for any of these reasons but they really are for everybody to enjoy. People are completely amazed that you can have desserts this good without any animal products or cooking. What’s far more amazing is that they taste more decadent and flavourful than the “real thing”!

I have spent the last two months lovingly making fantastic raw cakes and taking photos of them but due to technical problems with my laptop I can't retrieve them. I'm working on replacing them but it will take time. You can see some of the amazing creations at www.thelivingvision.com. |
