How it's done

Base

Melt a little coconut oil in a bain-marie, brush the edges of the springform pans with coconut oil. Spread the mixture evenly over the base of a springform pan, place in the freezer for approx. 30 mins.

Filling 1

Using a food processor or mixer, puree all the remaining ingredients until smooth (except for the coconut oil). Place the coconut oil in a bowl, melt in a hot bain-marie, gradually add to the filling and stir. Spread the filling over the frozen almond & date base. Carefully tap out any air bubbles until there are none remaining on the surface. Cover the tin with clingfilm and place in the freezer overnight.

Filling 2

Using a food processor or mixer, puree all the remaining ingredients until smooth (except for the coconut oil). Place the coconut oil in a bowl, melt in a hot bain-marie, gradually add to the filling and stir. Transfer the mixture to the second springform pan. Carefully tap out any air bubbles until there are none remaining on the surface. Cover the tin with clingfilm and also place in the freezer overnight.

Ganache

Place the couverture drops in a bowl. Heat the coconut milk, pour the milk over the couverture and melt. Stir the ganache until smooth, cover and refrigerate overnight.

Finishing & Topping

The next day, loosen the cakes from the tin frames and bases using a knife that has been rinsed in hot water. Place the cakes on two plates.

Coat the cake base (apricot/mango) with all of the ganache.

Place the cake with ganache on a plate, prepare the blueberry cake and place it on top. Return to the fridge and allow to harden for 30 mins. Slice to serve.
