Artistruth's Thoughts

By artistruth

i made this cake for the full moon.

Beetroot and chocolate make magic together and are a worthy offering to the amazing moon.

Don’t let the dinosaurs in the picture scare you.

Sit outside, enjoy some moonlight, and share your cake.

It's pretty quick to put together if you already have the pulp. I use the coconut milk recipe on this site and use the milk in my hair as a leave-in conditioning treatment.

And feel free to play around with spice quantities. I just adore cardamom, so use lots!

Beet magic believers, you have to read Tom Robbins' "Jitterbug Perfume" it's my favorite book!

This cake sounds excellent, I'm making it this weekend!

mm beets and cardamom. You would think I'd have thought of that already. I will probably never have the coconut. Can't hardly find them here, and moldy when you do:(, but I might make this anyway. :) Thank you very much.

you can use dessicated coconut that you buy at the store... not as fresh, but still the same texture and taste

Beets and chocolate are both such deep grounding foods... makes sense that they'd find themselves in the same cake....

I once made a beet and chocolate cake and they really do compliment each other. Thanks for sharing.
