I love anything lemony so these are definitely right up my alley! They’re also completely vegan, gluten free and raw meaning they are likely to work for pretty much all dietary requirements. I also love that these aren’t too sweet as I often find bliss balls can be just that little bit sweet if they include too many dried fruits.

They keep really well in the fridge or freezer too, so they’re perfect to make ahead of time and then just grab and go when you need them! I popped a couple in a bag to come with me on the plane so that I had something delicious to snack on at the airport without having to resort to the overpriced, not-so-tasty options I generally find at airports!
