Ferrero Rocher layer cake – Paleo style
Ferrero Rocher is one of my favourite candies from the past (pre sugar free life), how could it not be - chocolate and nuts yummy.
As you know I like to re-construct my favourite sweets and cakes into a more health promoting version that can comply with a relaxed Paleo lifestyle.
This cake here was my Birthday treat, it's not something you would have daily or weekly on a Paleo diet but it can sweeten a special occasion and make your day.
