In case you didn't know yet, I love all things sweet. Cakes, puddings, desserts, sweets. You name it, I like it. One of my favourite cakes is cherry bakewell tart. I miss these little almond, cherry lovelies, but not only do they contain dairy, they also have a very high fat and sugar content. Not ideal for breakfast. That got me thinking... could I turn this classic cake into a healthy breakfast smoothie? And by Jove, I think I have managed it!
