The Raw Key Lime Pie is an absolute must for those with a sweet tooth. Layered with delicious meringue, it’s both creamy and zesty all in one big mouthful.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
Seeds of life bliss balls makes raw food taste good
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Alchemy, located further from the central township in the quieter area of Penestanan, offers the best raw pizza in Ubud. Either the mushroom and spinach or the sundried tomato with pineapple and cashew “cheese” will have you returning for more. Their raw desserts are both divinely indulgent and rich in raw fruits, cacao, nuts and seeds (therefore, guilt free and good for you).[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Their zucchini-based wraps with jicama chips are a favourite and perennially on the menu. The menu is vast, but opting for the daily special is always a good idea.
