Who doesn’t love caramel slice?!

Caramel slice has been floating around since before time began. The original slice I find a little rich and sweet for my taste but this raw slice has the right amount of goodness to balance the sweetness! This keeps really well in the freezer, as do most raw desserts, so if you make too much of this (not sure if that is even possible) then it will never go to waste.

As a kid my favourite chocolate in any mixed box was the chewy caramels. Darrell Lea, Cadbury Favourites, Butler’s Chocolates, Thornton’s...whatever...

The first time I tried a Mexican dip at a party I was hooked.

It was delicious layers of refried beans, avocado, sour cream, grated cheese and tomato. I mean I was trying to find ways to surreptitiously shovel these glorious layers of heaven into my mouth while still maintaining some semblance of decorum….why couldn’t the hosts just give me a spoon!

So I started making it myself.

The first time people saw it their faces were priceless. Cold nachos? It looks weird! I’d just tell them to trust me and try it....
