Why it works
Beetroot and dates provide natural sweetness and moisture, while raw cacao adds richness and depth. Queen Garnet Plum Powder offers a subtle tartness and vibrant colour, along with naturally occurring anthocyanins – antioxidants that have been studied for their role in supporting everyday wellbeing.
Because our raw cacao slice is no-bake, the flavours stay fresh, and the texture remains soft yet satisfying.
Tip
Swap white chocolate for dark chocolate if you prefer a richer finish.
A Simple Way to Enjoy Queen Garnet
Queen Garnet is an Australian-developed fruit known for its deep-purple colour and naturally high anthocyanin content. Anthocyanins are plant compounds that have been studied for their antioxidant properties and their role in supporting the body’s natural balance.
In this no-bake beetroot slice, Queen Garnet Plum Powder adds more than colour. Its slightly tart, fruity notes complement the sweetness of dates and beetroot, while pairing beautifully with raw cacao. Because it’s used in a no-bake recipe, the ingredient stays close to its natural form, making it an easy way to include antioxidant-rich fruit as part of an everyday treat.
This healthy slice recipe is a delicious way to include Queen Garnet in everyday cooking – perfect for raw desserts, smoothies, or snacks that feel nourishing without being complicated
