A tropical mango, passionfruit, and salina vegan cheesecake. 💛 The base is one of our favourites made from a mix of dates, oats, and agave syrup. The cheesecake filling is made using cashew nuts, coconut, mango and @theorganiclab.eu Dunaliella Salina. Its the first time we used this algae in our food but we love the bright orange colour.
