Raw hummingbird cake with rough leaf pinneapple

This cake was dedicated to love and to life and the passing of a dear

I took it along to an Opa! gig, complete with floral grandma plate and
bone knife, and shared it amongst the wild gypsy dancing.

Seriously love pie

Possibly one of the most intensely love infused dishes I have ever made and eaten. This was a very special pie. I didn't have a blender or mortar and pestle so everything was prepared with a knife and crushed between my fingers.

macadamia nuts
lime juice, salt
a spoon of coconut butter
-
filling

Wonder love pie

The crust was described below, and as for the filling, I think it was something like
a cup of soaked almonds with the skins peeled off
flesh of a young Thai coconut
a few spoons of coconut butter
a packet of frozen mixed berries
salt, and was that all?
Love! Forgiveness and gratitude!
