Method
 

Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your baking pan with coconut oil spray.
  2. In an electric mixer, cream together Kerry Gold butter and organic coconut sugar until fluffy and light.
  3. Add in organic eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition; stir in vanilla extract and collagen peptides.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together organic flour, baking powder, and sea salt; blend this with the wet mixture, alternating with organic half-and-half.
  5. Carefully fold in the fresh organic blueberries.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 55–65 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Cool the cake in the pan for about 1 hour, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Whip together heavy whipping cream, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  9. Spread the whipped cream on top of the cooled cake; decorate with sliced organic strawberries and additional blueberries.
  10. Slice and serve immediately.
