Bliss balls are one of my favourite go-to snacks not only because they’re so delicious it’s like eating dessert before dinner but because they’re easy and fast to whip up, require only a few ingredients and are a super satisfying snack between meals and on-the-go.

These are also great lunchbox snacks for kids to provide slow-release energy and a sweet bite without the sugar highs and crashes. I often take them on long train journeys for a nibble whilst travelling and they’re perfect for sharing as they’re already in grab-and-bize-sized portions.
