Rum-Almond  sponge cake base: Makes: a round 13cm cake that is 5.5cm high – Cut into a layer that suits your base depth. Prep time: 10 min Cooking: 20min at 200 degree celsius Cooling: 1 hour   For the sponge cake base you need: 5 medium eggs 80g ground almonds – mixed ground nuts work too. 60g organic virgin Coconut oil 3 tbsp Rum 1-2 knife-tips Stevia-sweet 90% powder dissolved in 1 table spoons hot water Note: getting the sweetness to the desired level is a matter of trial and error, the best thing is to start with a smaller amount of whatever Stevia you have on hand, it can be ready-use, liquid or tabs (need to be dissolved too), adding more is easier than diluting – you could end up with a huge amount of treat -Don’t have any Stevia yet? – you can always use normal sweetener products until you are set...

Do you like ice cream? Feel like the only ice cream worth heaving is italian ice cream from the gelateria? You tried numerous home ice cream methods but they go rock solid and by the time you can get the spoon in the stuff is a soggy puddle of liquid again? Don't despair, I may have a solution for you. This recipe makes creamy ice cream you can make at home. This version is based on a butter cream with fresh strawberries blended in. I made little ice cream candies in a ice cube mould. Don't like strawberries in ice cream, try Bulletproof Coffee/ Cocoa ice creams, as mini bite ice-candies or as ice pops. Don't know why Bulletproof coffee is special and health promoting because it does is processed to give you a low-toxin bean? Get the low down here. Once the strawberry version was set I decided since many people think chocolate and strawberries are a good fit, i covered a few frozen...
