Ingredients For Chia Seeds Pudding Cake

Coconut Milk: A rich and creamy non-dairy milk that provides the base for the chia pudding. Its subtle sweetness and velvety texture make it ideal for this recipe.

Chia Seeds: Tiny nutrient powerhouses that become thick pudding when soaked. They add a creamy texture, natural gelling properties, and a dose of omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and protein.

Gelatin stabilizes the cake layers and creates a firm, sliceable texture. It’s a key ingredient for ensuring the dessert holds its shape.

No-Sugar Raspberry Jello: This jello adds a burst of vibrant raspberry flavor with a light, refreshing sweetness, all without added sugar, making it a healthier option. I used jello from Simply Delish.

Erythritol: A natural, zero-calorie sweetener that provides sweetness without the glycemic impact of sugar, making it perfect for those seeking a low-sugar dessert.

Raspberries: Juicy, fresh fruit that delivers a tart, fruity flavor and pops of color, creating a balance to the creamy layers of the cake.

Coconut Cream is the luxurious, thickened part of coconut milk that adds a silky, indulgent texture to the dessert while amplifying the coconut flavor.

How To Make It?

Prepare the Chia Seed Pudding

Combine full-fat coconut milk, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and chia seeds in a large mixing bowl.

Add erythritol or sweetener of your choice and stir thoroughly to ensure no clumps.

Let the mixture sit for 10–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chia seeds absorb the liquid and form a thick pudding.

Bloom gelatine in cold water for 3 minutes, then add hot water and dissolve it to prevent lumps. Cool it down for 5 minutes and mix it with the chia mixture (for the vegan version use agar agar).

Transfer the chia pudding mixture to a spring pan and put in the fridge for 3 hours. 

Make the Raspberry Layer

Wash a small box of raspberries and mash them with a fork in a small bowl. Set it aside.

When the cake mixture is settled in the fridge, prepare the no-sugar raspberry jello according to the package instructions. Use two packages. Allow the jello mixture to cool slightly, but don’t let it set completely.

Layer the Cake

Spread the mashed raspberries on top, then add the cooled raspberry jello to the chia pudding layer. Refrigerate until the jello is fully set.

Decorate

Once the jello layer is set, decorate with other berries and berry compote if you made one, but this is optional. You can also decorate with whipped cream or add your favorite toppings.

Substitutes and Variations

• Replace raspberry with other fruits. I love to use blackberries and fresh peaches.
• For a vegan version, use agar to thicken the cake.
• Make peach compote for garnish.
• Add raw cacao powder to make it chocolatey. You can also add cacao nibs for extra crunch.
• Use whipped cream instead of coconut cream or milk of choice.
• Use purred fruits and add them to the base.
• Layer with fresh fruit slices: Add layers of sliced kiwi, mango, or strawberries. This adds a pop of color and flavor to every bite.
• Make fruit sauces: Puree berries with a touch of sweetener and cook until slightly thickened. Drizzle this sauce over the top of the cake for a fresh and fruity garnish. Incorporating fruit creates a balance between the creamy chia texture and the natural tartness of fresh produce.
