Snacks. So yummy, yet so hard to find healthier options. 

Talk about a major snack win! Tasty and healthy – Bliss Balls really do offer bliss with each bite. These delectable raw food snacks offer a burst of energy and a content feeling right through to dinner!

Ingredients

• 2 cups of pitted dates

• 1 small orange, chopped, skin and all, remove pips

• 1-2 tablespoons cacao or cocoa

• 1 teaspoon cinnamon

• 1-2 tablespoons finely chopped ginger

• 1-2 cups desiccated coconut

• Sesame seeds for coating

 Method

• In a food processor, blitz the dates and orange to a smoothie-ish puree

• Add all other ingredients and blitz until the mixture forms a large, stiff mass

• Refrigerate for an hour so that it firms up a bit – this makes it easier to roll into balls

• Roll into balls

• Put the balls in a bowl of sesame seeds and coat

• Place in a covered container in the fridge (they will last for two weeks!)

 Enjoy!
