For my birthday this year, my man got me a very special (and very healthy) custom-made cake by Peggy at Prune Organic Deli & Workshop and Grassroots Pantry. I follow her on Instagram but I must’ve missed her post, so it was a really nice surprise when it was unveiled at a rather unhealthy spot (Tung Po, haha).

The cake is two thick layers of vegan, gluten-free chocolate cake sandwiching a layer of my favourite flavour of Happy Cow ice cream — cherry almond fudge! Then it’s slathered with a thick coat of chocolate and surrounded by icy raspberries. Take a look:

To be honest, the cake was slightly dry (after being frozen?) but when paired with the melting Happy Cow ice cream, it was absolutely perfect. Just enough chocolate taste and not at all too sweet, not to mention, guilt-free. Recommended!
