Looks delicious! I would love to make this. Where did you get the coconut from? It doesn't look like the little brown coconuts sold in the grocery store. It looks like the ones I see when I've gone to the caribbean. Also, cashew butter is delicious, but a bit hard on my budget right now. Can I substitute all natural peanut butter? Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to more raw recipes😊

GrandRiSing, with all that goodness. I think a bit of natural raspberry flavoring, will give it a Greater Zing!!!
