Zest of 1 lime
Pinch of coarse sea salt
Filling:
2½ cups cashews, soaked in water for 2 hours then drained*
½ cup lime juice
¾ cup rice malt syrup, or preferred liquid sweetener (start with half a cup – then add more to taste, this really depends on the sweetness of your fruit)
1½ cups fresh mango (pack the cups super tightly or use heaped cups)
¼ cup fresh passionfruit pulp
½ cup coconut oil, liquefied
2 tablespoons cacao butter, liquefied
Pinch of coarse sea salt
*The longer you soak the cashews, the softer and easier they are to blend, 2 hours in the minimum, you can soak up to 8 hours.
Topping:
Fresh mango, papaya, passionfruit
