This chocolate fridge cake requires zero baking and is also topped with a tofu ganache. Created by Izy Hossack from the blog Top With Cinnamon, the dessert recipe is described as "sliceably soft" as well as a British version of an icebox cake.
To enjoy this chocolate fridge cake at home, you will need tasty ingredients such as dark chocolate, digestive biscuits, firm silken tofu, golden or maple syrup, salt, vanilla extract and water. Melted dark chocolate (abut 85%) and crushed pistachios are used for topping.
By replacing the butter typically found in fridge cakes with tofu, you can considerably cut out fat content. If you do not eat dairy, you can also replace the plain digestive cookies with a non-dairy version.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Plant-based Desserts
- There is a disruption opportunity for companies to develop new plant-based dessert options due to the growing demand for healthier, sustainable and cruelty-free diets.
- Alternative Ingredient Substitutes
- Developing innovative ways to use alternative ingredient substitutes like tofu, can create new and unique recipes while reducing costs, increasing health benefits and expanding dietary options.
- No-bake Desserts
- The trend towards no-bake dessert recipes provides opportunities for companies to create innovative products that meet the demand for convenience, save energy and reduce the carbon footprint of baking.
