Blueberry and coconut-rum cake

How does a combination of blueberries, coconut, biscuits, and a little bit of rum sound to you?

This cake will surely solve your stress accumulated over a week, and I believe all three ingredients quickly made you read. Blueberries and coconut will call out the flavors of summer, while rum gives it the taste you would not expect. And the best thing about it there is no baking involved.

First spring blueberries in me have woken up a wish for –  waking up, but in that light way, just like the light cake I am presenting today. That rum taste I am leaving it up to you, add more or less, whatever amount you like.

Prepare a blueberry mousse cream, coconut cream with rum and crus those biscuits, that’s all you have to do. Reward yourself with a dessert that you will long remember.
