Do you like lemon desserts? And what about the lemon ice cream? And if I tell you that with only a few ingredients, you can get the creamiest and most lemon-flavoured bars in the world?
Along with the matcha and the almond crust really are a delight. Super refreshing, perfect for summer or for a quick and light snack. The lemon layer is more creamy than matcha since agar agar doesn’t work in the same way with very acidic mixtures, so I have decided to call it lemon curd, it is really heavenly, I could eat it by spoonfuls. I hope you try them.

Recipe Notes
*I have used "almond milk cuisine" from Ecomil, since it is thicker than most milks that are available in the markets
