Raspberry Matcha Cheesecake (vegan & grain-free)

Welcome, May! Summer with all of its magic is upon us and I have a beautiful Raspberry Matcha Cheesecake for you to celebrate. With beautiful shades of pink and green representing the inner and outer heart, this dessert is created to bring you into your heart centre and inspire you in your healing journey towards wholeness and love.

Within your heart lie all of the answers that you’re seeking, all you need to do is take time to tune in and listen. The world around us is changing and we are now asked to live from our hearts more than ever before.

I am working on some online offerings, will it be live online classes or an online course and if you have something you’d love to explore and learn with me please do send me a message I’d love to speak with you. The way it’s shaping for me at the moment looks like it will be centered around colours, seasons, plantbased cakes and healing.

I’ve created this Raspberry Matcha Cheesecake in February for an event for my friend’s book launch, had such wonderful feedback, and I always wanted to bring this recipe to you. It was from this recipe that I’ve adapted the Blueberry Lemon Cheesecake.

I’ve used frozen raspberries in here (except the decoration) as they’re still not in season, but you can use fresh raspberries as you like. I’ve also pressed extra whole raspberries into the centre to create a nice effect and a little surprise when sliced.

Decorated with some beautiful seasonal blooms to nourish your soul as well as your senses.

With much Love & Light

Hana xx

    Hello, can you tell me please, can I replace coconut butter with cocoa butter?

      Hi Jenya, Yes, you can set it with cacao butter if you like. Use a little less 1/3 cup should be more than enough.

    Love your creation!! Which cling wrap and baking paper do you suggest? Also do you have the link to the cake tins you use with the removable base?

      Hi Watta, you can use any, the paper stops the condensation from the cling film so you don’t end up with water drops on top of the cake. In this recipe, I use non-stick 7″ square cake tin with removable base, I can’t remember where I bought it from, sorry.

    Desicated coconut… I assume unsweetened. This is the real finely ground correct?

      Hi Michele, I use unsweetened. It doesn’t need to be completely fine, it can retain some texture. If it’s thick or you could even use coconut chips, you can just blend it. Hope you like the recipe :)

Happy New Year beautiful! ✨ I’m feeling that Happy New Year beautiful! ✨

I’m feeling that this is the year we all need to ease into. Use this sacred pause we’re in until the 5th of January to really go within and listen deeply to what are you being called to birth this year. Forget creating goals from your ego. What are those whispers of your soul calling you to? Is it time to take the lead in your life? ✨

If this year is a continuation of 2020 we will need more conscious embodied leaders taking charge to create the change our planet needs. It’s us who create the future. ✨

Now that many of us are awake we need conscious women and men to walk together hand in hand! We’ve got this! 

✨🕊✨

Sending so much Love Hana xx

White Yule Log from last year ❄️ Chocolate spo White Yule Log from last year ❄️ Chocolate sponge cake with white chocolate frosting, all gluten-free & vegan! You can find the recipe on my blog in the Christmas round up post for easy access.🎄

What dessert are you making this year? To be honest I’ve got my gingerbread cookies stored in fridge, the leftover chocolate cranberry orange cake in freezer so I’m quite sorted! But still pondering whether to make the gingerbread cheesecake. And just have written a new recipe for a lentil nut roast which I’m really looking forward to making on Christmas Day. 🎄

Chocolate Cranberry Orange Cake 🌱 @amoredimona Chocolate Cranberry Orange Cake 🌱 @amoredimona has challenged me to create vegan, grain-free and nut-free chocolate recipe and so I took on the challenge with this layer cake. And I have finally experienced with cassava and tigernut flours, something I’ve been wanting to do for ages. If you fancy some grain-free baking check out the recipe on the blog. 😉

Have a wonderful weekend beautiful! ✨
