Wild Arbor clear cream liqueur as nature intended

There are many cream liqueurs out on the market but if you can’t have cream or milk then fear not as Wild Arbor cream liqueur is the answer. Their liqueur tastes exactly like a cream liqueur but obviously different in the look as it is a clear liqueur, contains no dairy and is gluten free.

Thanks to Wild Arbor I was gifted a few bottles on a PR basis to try and test and I was highly surprised by the taste and it really did taste like a normal Cream Liqueur who would of thought this was totally plant based.

Wild Arbor

Wild Arbor is a clear cream liqueur which is made natural ingredients; free of gluten, free of dairy, free of lactose, and without a single genetically modified organism. Wild Arbor is a cream liqueur, but as mother nature intended it.

Wild Arbor is made from honeybee and the result is a delicious creamy liquid, with a strong taste of cocoa, chocolate and vanilla, resulting in a luxurious, velvety smooth taste.

Wild Arbor is perfect for drinking neat on ice, as a mixer or with coffee as a cream substitute or even great to use within desserts.

Plus with every purchase of a Wild Arbor bottle a tree is planted helping the environment.

Wild Arbor taste of nature

At last, a cream liqueur as mother nature intended. Wild Arbor is a plant based liqueur. It is free of gluten, dairy, lactose, and GMO free. Wild Arbor has the classic indulgent taste of a cream liqueur of cream, chocolate, caramel and a touch of vanilla and sweet but without dairy cream.

Wild Arbor is perfect on it’s own but worked equally as well as a mixer and desserts so I got a little creative.

Wild Arbor Chocolate Mousse

Ingredients (serve 2)

• 50g milk chocolate
• 13g butter cubed
• 2 medium eggs, separated
• 1 tbsp caster sugar
• 1 tbsp Wild Arbour
• 25g double cream
• 1 tbsp Wild Arbour

Method

1. Put the chocolate, butter and 37ml warm water in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Push the chocolate and butter gently into the warm water with a wooden spoon to help it melt, but avoid stirring too much. Once three-quarters of the butter and chocolate has melted, remove the bowl from the heat. Stir until melted, smooth and glossy. Set aside until lukewarm.
2. Working quickly, use a spatula to stir the egg yolks into the chocolate mixture, one at a time along with 1 tbsp of Wild Arbor. In a separate bowl, use an electric whisk to whip the egg whites to soft peaks, then gradually add the sugar, whisking, until stiff peaks form.
3. Gently fold about a fifth of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture, then fold in the rest, being careful not to knock out the air bubbles.
4. Pour into a dessert glass, cover with clingfilm and chill overnight to set. Once set and ready to serve make the cream by hand whisking the double cream along with 1 tbsp Wild Arbor. Pour into glass and serve.

Wild Arbor Strawberry Mudslide Layer Cake

Ingredients

• 60ml Wild Arbor
• 315g plain flour
• 300g caster sugar
• 1 1/2 tsp bicarbonate soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 360ml almond milk
• 2 tsp almond extract
• 120ml rapeseed oil
• 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
• Red food colouring optional
• 120g vegan butter
• 60ml almond milk
• 1 tsp Wild Arbour
• Strawberries

Method

1. Preheat oven 180c and line a 4 x 8 cake tine.
2. Sift the flour into a bowl with the bicarbonate soda and salt.
3. Add sugar, milk, extract, oil and vinegar into flour and whisk.
4. If using colouring divide into mixture into 4 bowls and add a few drops to one then more in the next bowl and so on creating a light to darker colour red mix.
5. Now add the bowls to one of the cake tins and bake. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
6. Leave to cool in the tins for 5 minutes then remove and place on a wire rack.
7. Make the buttercream. Beat the butter in a mixer until smooth then add icing sugar and beat slowly until combined.
8. Pour in the Wild Arbor and splash of milk and beat until smooth. If your butter cream appears to thin add more icing sugar.
9. Then assemble, I used a cookie cutter though to make a smaller version. Starting with the darkest layer first I brushed with Wild Arbor then added a spread of buttercream, then the next cake base again brushed with Wild Arbor and buttercream and so on.
10. Then place in fridge until firm. Then serve with strawberries.

Cake delight.
