1. Melt 75g cacao butter and 35g coconut butter in a bowl over hot water.
2. Blend the soaked apricots with their soak water plus 30ml extra water in a blender. A High Powered Blender would be ideal for this, but a hand blender or other type of blender should work well too if they are well soaked.
3. Add melted butters to the blender and blend again for a short time.
4. Mix together goji berries, purple corn flour, lucuma powder, carob powder and cacao powder in a large bowl.
5. Add the melted butters/apricot mixture to the large bowl of dry ingredients and stir well.
6. Place into a small cake tin or glass or ceramic dish and refrigerate.
7. When it is cold, you can ice it. Don’t be tempted to ice it until it is completely cold and set or the oils in the icing will separate out.
8. Melt the cacao butter and coconut butter for the icing as above.
9. Stir in the cacao, carob and lucuma powder and beat together.
10. Ice your cake and refrigerate.
11. Serve as it is or it is great with fresh berries or cherries and a cup of herbal tea.
