The Avo Tree

07/06/2026

BTS of us filming the newest episode of Ems GEMs at

When we started this series, it was never about avos or us, just a genuine desire to shine a light on the local legends quietly doing incredible things right on our doorstep.

Our locals need our support more than ever right now. And we love nothing more than spotlighting the great people and places in our community (in this case, very delicious places too).

New episode dropping on Wednesday. You don't want to miss this one. 👀

New recipe alert! We are sooooo back avo lovers! ⁠
Save for later. Dark Chocolate, Nut & Ginger Slice.⁠
⁠
Base⁠
1½ cups pitted dates⁠
1 cup slivered almonds⁠
½ cup walnuts⁠
½ cup cashews⁠
¼ cup pumpkin seeds⁠
½ cup desiccated coconut⁠
2 tbsp almond butter⁠
⅓ cup crystallized ginger, finely chopped⁠
¼ cup raw buckwheat groats⁠
2 tbsp ground almonds⁠
Pinch of salt⁠
⁠
Chocolate Fudge Icing⁠
1 large ripe Hass avocado (Reeds are actually in this video)⁠
200g dark chocolate, melted⁠
Soak dates 10 mins in boiling water, drain and mash with almond butter. Toast nuts, seeds and coconut at 180°C until golden. Mix everything together — it should be sticky and hold together. Press into a lined loaf tin and chill. Blitz avo and melted chocolate until smooth, spread over base. Refrigerate 6+ hours before slicing.⁠
⁠
Avocado must be ripe and at room temp for a smooth icing. 🍫⁠
⁠
Enjoy Avo lovers!

Loved for their creamy texture, high oil content, generous flesh to seed ratio and that distinctly nutty flavour - the Hass is something special. Packed with 20+ vitamins and minerals, healthy fats, antioxidants and fibre - it really is a superhero superfruit. ⁠

They tell you when they're ready - when the skin turns from green to dark purple, that's your cue. You can pop a banana in the bowl if you just can’t wait, to speed things up. ⁠
