Notes
Place cans of coconut milk in fridge to set overnight before making recipe.
Tart dough should be sticky enough to form a crust, add more dates if needed.
Goji Berry Powder and Maqui Berry Powder can be purchased from an organic store.
Red Beet Powder can also be purchased from an organic store and is usually in the baking section.
Save the rest of the coconut cream to use a fruit salad topping :)
