For the base
3/4c cashews
1T agave
1t vanilla extract
Pinch salt
2t lemon juice
1T desiccated coconut
• Grind all ingredients in a food processor.
• Press into 2 small individual cup or cake moulds of your choice that has been lined with plastic wrap.
• Dehydrate for approximately 3 hours until the shells are strong enough to hold together without the case, and then remove from the case to dry for a further 6 hours or overnight.
For the filling
1/2c cashews
3T coconut oil
2T lemon juice
2t vanilla extract
Pinch salt
2T water
1T agave
1/2c cherries*, stones removed
1/2c mango, flesh only
*You can substitute cherries for any other fruit, such as pineapple or bananas, depending on what you like and what’s available in season.
• Blend all ingredients in a high speed blender under smooth, it’s nice to have some chunks of mango or cherry stirred in at the end so you get little bursts of flavour.
• Pour into an ice-cream maker or freeze in a tub, if doing the latter then once frozen pass through a juicer with the homogenizing attachment on.
• Fill the shells with the ice-cream and garnish with slices of mango. Easy!

Hi there! I totally admire vegetarians and raw foodies like you since you could maintain healthy eating all throughout. I’m also planning to eat healthier, so I wanna ask tips from people like you on how to get started wating healthier. One of my concerns about raw food eating is you need to get a dehydrator. I can’t find oone in our local mall (I live int he Philipines), so what other alternatives could you suggest? I hope you’ll take time to repond to this, because I admire people like you who can resist meat without the hassles. BTW, I changed my blog address to http://www.justsweeterthansugar.blogspot.com Feel free to visist ir anytime ;) Thank you and keep posting ;)
From Russell: Hi Abby, I have heard of people using their ovens on the lowest temp with the door open in place of a dehydrator, maybe you could try that?

Hi Russell,
I was so excited to make this after doing two of your courses (london & bognor) and was gutted that all the green star juicer did was melt it back to liquid again!
It took me over an hour to chop it up after been frozen!
I put the blank on the green star juicer and wonder what I’m doing wrong?!
From Russell: Hi Niki, sounds like you left it out to thaw for too long before cutting. You should only need to leave it out for 10 mins before cutting. Then use a knife dipped in hot water to cut easily. that way when it goes through the Green Star it will still be solid. It can then be re-frozen again for use later.
