Add the (drained and rinsed) cashew, coconut cream, peach compote, syrup and lemon juice in the food processor and blend until combined
Add the melted coconut oil and cacao butter gradually through the top of the blender while the motor is running. These should blend in completely and you should end up with a smooth cream. Pour the cream filling onto the base, smooth with a spatula and place in the freezer to set for about one hour
