Soak Cashews at room temperature for 2 hours or if pressed for time, 30 minutes in hot water.
Stir the agar agra flakes in with the water and allow to soak for 30 minutes.
Heat in a pot without stirring until boiling. Turn down to simmer until the flakes fully dissolve. (5-10 minutes). Stir occasionally. If it is drying out add a dash of water to keep the dissolving process going.
Drain cashews and add agave, coconut cream, vanilla, collagen and salt to a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. Slowly stream in melted cacao butter (or melted coconut oil*) along with the dissolved Agar Agar and blend it up.
