Method

1. In a small pan whisk the agar agar and sugar into the cold almond drink until there are no lumps.
2. Bring to the boil over medium heat and boil for 2 minutes, stirring, until the agar has completely dissolved.
3. Pour half the mixture into a glass and leave to set in the fridge for 20 minutes, until the surface is firm.
4. Meanwhile whisk the cocoa into the remaining half; if it has started to set in the meantime, warm it over low heat for a minute, until liquid again, and pour it over the white layer.
5. Leave to set in the fridge for an hour; meanwhile toast the almonds in a dry small pan over medium heat for 3–4 minutes, until fragrant, roughly chop them and scatter over the dessert.
