A raw sweet that is packed with the Tibetan superfood the goji berry and the nutty flavour of sunflower kernels.  Coated in goji and coconut blend for an extra sweet touch.  It is a great alternative to a nut based bliss ball.

  3. Turn out into a medium mixing bowl and knead with hands.
  4. With a tablespoon lift a level amount and then roll the mixture into a ball using your hands and place on a plate. Repeat till all mixture is made into balls.
