I’ve been following Sweet Caramel Sunday on Instagram and have really enjoyed seeing photos of all of Adrianne’s recipes. I have tried a couple of recipes, and one of my absolute favourites are these orange cacao bliss balls. I love raw balls as they are so easy to make and help with my sweet carvings too.
The things I love about this recipe is;
- It’s so quick and easy to make
- It’s healthy
- Making your own snacks means “zero waste” so no plastic packaging which means no impact on the environment
Give these a go, they’re so yummy and go well with a hot cup of tea – perfect for these winter evenings! The subtle taste of orange really hits the spot for me, it reminds me of a healthy version of Terry’s Chocolate Orange that I used to eat as a child!
