2.Whisk the coconut cream white until you get a foam, add the honey and cacao. 

3.Once the mixture from sauce pan is cold or room temperature, slowly pour into the coconut cream, and with the hand blender mix it a few minutes. Place the bowl in the fridge.


Preheat the oven for 180C.

1. Divide the eggs, and mix the yolks with Stevia, water ,oil and lemon zest.

2.Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until is foamy, than slowly add to the egg yolks, and mix it from the bowl down to the top, careful we still need the foam, gradually add flour the coconut flour and tapioca flour.

3.Pour the mixture on a baking paper spreading to corners. Bake for 12-15 minutes.

4.Immediately loosen cake from sides of pan and turn upside down onto towel. Carefully remove paper. Trim off stiff edges of cake if necessary. 
While cake is hot, carefully roll cake and towel from narrow end. Cool on cooling rack at least 30 minutes.
