Orange-Cardamom Cheesecake: Cardamom is one of the oldest spices in the world, and was even used to make perfumes in Egypt. Cardamom pods are beautiful to look at – and they too act as a carminative, calming upset tummies. This warming spice can also heat things up in the bedroom – it has a bit of a reputation as an aphrodisiac.

100g raw cashews, soaked overnight
a pinch of salt
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 tsp rose water (optional)
1 tbsp maple syrup
juice and zest of one orange
1/2 tsp cardamom ground
a dash of turmeric powder
Chocolate-Peppermint Cheesecake: Peppermint has long been used as a remedy for digestion. It is antispasmodic and carminative, and has shown to be successful in alleviating colic, flatulence, gastrointestinal cramps, and diarrhoea. Brewing yourself a nice cup of fresh peppermint tea can be a useful aid to digestive distress especially after a heavy meal.
Filling ingredients
100g raw cashews, soaked overnight
a pinch of salt
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 tbsp strongly brewed peppermint tea
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp carob or cacao powder

Coconut-Mango Cheesecake: Mangoes are rich in phytochemicals, especially in carotenoids, which protect against cancer formation. They are anti-inflammatory, high in digestive enzymes, and can help protect against infections. They are also an excellent source of vitamin A, B-6, C and E, potassium and magnesium.

100g raw cashews, soaked overnight

Cheesecake base ingredients for all three flavours
300g almonds
10-12 Medjool dates

To make the base, place all the base ingredients in your food processor and blend until combined. Divide the mixture into a prepared muffin tin or container. Press with the back of the spoon and place in the freezer while making fillings. For the fillings, place all the filling ingredients for each flavour in your food processor and blend until smooth. Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness. Pour the mixture over the base and freeze again for 2-3 hours or until cheesecakes are set. Allow the cakes to thaw about 20 minutes before serving and keep the rest in the freezer. Dust coconut flour for garnish.
