Bliss balls are a superb choice for the afternoon pick-me-up or after dinner sweet treat.
Bliss balls are full of fibre, minerals and vitamins and these bite-size morsels are a good way of incorporating seeds and nuts into your diet. They're dairy-free and refined sugar-free and many are gluten-free too.
Bliss balls pack and travel well and because they taste amazing - natural sugars from date and honey will satisfy any sweet tooth - kids love them too. Pack them in the school lunchbox to help sustain kids' energy levels. Freeze them for longer storage and enjoy them staight from the freezer for a cool treat.
Mix and match nuts and seeds, and healthy ingredients such as coconut, dried fruit, chia, and cacao nibs. Be sure to use quality ingredients to ensure you're getting the best out of your bliss balls.
