Raspberry Ganache Fudge Cake - Raw image

From the book Ani's Raw Food Desserts by Ani Phyo. Hello to "home-style" frosting-fresh and not from a plastic tub. Goodness without guilt. I use carob in my cake to cut down on the caffeine, and because I love carob for its malty rich flavor. This cake is to live for, it's one of my favorites.
