Honestly, I don’t know. Raw desserts are calorie dense. But they are also nutrient dense…where your traditional cheesecake isn’t. Traditional cheesecake is full of ingredients that are dangerous to our health. Also, serving sizes are much smaller with raw…you will understand this when you eat it. It takes so much less to satisfy!

I just made this and put it in the fridge! I stole a bit of the “Cheese” part of the cake to taste and I cannot wait for it to finish setting!
Do you know about how many calories this is? I just want to compare to regular cheesecake.

Hi all I like to make a statement.
Going raw is a great way of living and I just love the great taste of it.
I often see comments on some ingredients like essential oil not being raw I think it’s taking it out of proportions in my humble opinion you can mix raw with some cooked food.
Some people poo poo vegan and raw food diet just for that reason taking it to serious.
Think we should relax more on it .
I’m on a raw diet myself but not in a extream way way

OOPS! Saw all the references about coconut butter after I posted…Please ignore that questions.

Hello Susan,

I found your site based on a reference to this dessert and I had 2 questions:

1) With your * comment about the almonds does that mean you soaked them for 12 hrs or so, then dehydrated them again before using in this recipe? Or, are they soaked almonds or just plain raw almonds?

(removed question about coconut butter)

Thanks!

Stacey: You can find information on coconut butter and coconut oil here: http://www.rawmazing.com/articles/raw-food-all-about-young-coconuts/
Personally, I soak my almonds to release the enzymes that we don’t want. After I soak, I dehydrate then store them in the refrigerator. In this recipe, I used those almonds dry.

Tom, it will be fine. Saturday would be better. And make sure you cover it in the fridge.
