This is a typical summer cake with strawberries but in another way of making the cake bottom. Instead of a soft cake bottom, this recipe use a almond paste with egg white for the bottom that makes it a wonderful combination together with the strawberry mousse. This recipe have an ingredients named Kesella, but it is possible to change it to cream cheese, curd cheese, fromage frais, or quark with the same fat percent. To make the mousse hard you might need to add one gelatin sheet or two.

This is a saffron version of the very popular Swedish chocolate mud cake called “kladdkaka”. This one is a gluten free version made with almond flour and white chocolate. It is prepared in a few minutes and is perfect for a spontaneous dessert. If you want a sauce on the side whip cream fits nicely together with the cake.
A homemade chocolate cake made with real chocolate and cacao powder is always appreciated. This one is soft and a bit sticky in the middle and both adults and children will like it.
Arak is a Lebanese aniseed spirit and popular to use in these Swedish chocolate balls. With this recipe the arak balls almost taste like the balls you find in the cafés. You can change the bread crumbles against oatmeal, or biscuits like digestive.
