Paleo Raw Choc Blueberry Cake

Paleo Choc Blueberry Cake
Paleo shock blueberry cake ... officially our new favorite treat! Even if we say this every two weeks ... this time it's for real!
Please tell us you've been enjoying fresh blueberries! They are in season here in Australia and they are super sweet and juicy! We could not resist the temptation to create a new paleo blueberry sweet treat recipe!
It is Paleo Shock Blueberry cake and it is epic! Extra toppings make it seem fancy and a delight, but if you are short on time (or can not be bothered) just make the cake and enjoy!
