Easter Raw Tart is a delicious blend of Mango & Blue Spirulina and it is a pure delight for the spring season. It will brighten up your table when you gather with your family and everyone will enjoy the refreshing yet satisfying flavor.
This Raw Easter Tart is my expression of spring when the sky is blue and the sun shines on blossoming flowers. It also tastes delicious and it’s absolutely guilt-free. Not very difficult to make either, if you follow my instructions carefully.
This is one of my oldest recipes and I transferred it here from my previous blog. Since then, I made a few other raw desserts, that you may like to try as well. For example RAW VEGAN SUPERFOOD CAKE. Or a little different type of tart, the RHUBARB & STRAWBERRY TART. Although this one is baked, it comes with a video, which will give you a better idea about the process.
If you never tried raw desserts, then I highly recommend it. My family loves them and I make them quite often. Not only they are delicious, but full of nutrients as well. Also, there are so many different flavor combinations you can do. And I am always here to help!
One last thing that I mentioned in my previous recipe, I just don’t remember which one. It is about Edible Flowers. I love decorating with flowers, but not always with edible. Sometimes I just use whatever is in the garden, as you can see on my blog if you browse through my recipes. Pansies are one of my favorites as you can see on this raw cake. However, there are many other edible flowers. And if you like the idea to decorate with flowers you should educate yourself. Especially if you are planning to serve them to your friends and family, Here in this article you can find out the basics about EDIBLE FLOWERS.
Thank you so much for visiting. I really hope you like this tart and if you have any questions or suggestions feel free to contact me anytime.
