Tip: Although a healthy desert, this is still quite rich so you may want to stretch this quantity to serve 4 people and serve it in small coffee cups or shot glasses. As an alternative, if you like ginger, you can substitute the orange zest with glacé ginger.

What to do
-
-
Mix the cacao powder and the coconut water together until you have a paste then place into the food processor with the avocado, vanilla, honey, orange zest and coconut oil.
-
Process until you have a very fine, soft and whipped mixture. You can process this mixture for quite a while in order to achieve a very fine and fluffy consistency. Don’t worry about over-processing.
-
Keep in mind that the cacao powder is quite bitter so it is best to taste and adjust the level of sweetness to suit your taste.
-
Pour into individual dessert glasses or small coffee cups and refrigerate for about 2 hours before serving topped with the toasted almonds and strawberries.
-
To toast the almond flakes: place almonds into a small non-stick frying pan and lightly toast over a medium heat until golden or roast in the oven.
