Sugar, Spice and Savory Pie
Cassava(Yuca) Pone is a special treat that can be enjoyed by everyone. It is a a dense, gelatinous cake that is naturally gluten free. Cassava is a root vegetable that has become widely used as a gluten free option, as it is a rich source of carbohydrates.

Traditionally, cassava pone is made with freshly grated cassava and coconut, but now with the availability of cassava flour and shredded coconut, we have adapted the recipe to make it easier and convenient to enjoy this decadent treat anytime. Cassava pone is a great addition to any gathering, as it is gluten free, vegan and allergen friendly. It is a wonderful balance of savory, sweet and our Happy Harvest spice blend adds the perfect flavorful warmth.
