Base:
4 cups Brazil Nuts
3 cups Raisins
1 cup Figs

Frosting:
1 cup pitted dates
2 tbs lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon rind
Pulp of 1 passionfruit

To make base: Blend until it forms a solid mass in the food processor (it should be very fine with the occasional chunk). Place on a plate and shape into a cake shape. You can use chopsticks to make the nice fluted edges in the picture by pushing into the sides. Wet the chopstick if it starts to stick.

To make frosting: Blend well. If the dates are very firm and resisting blending just blend partially and let soak about 15 minutes to soften. Blend until smooth and creamy, then frost the cake. Decorate with lemon zest, nuts, fresh berries or passionfruit pulp.
