Create your own variations!

  • You can experiment with more chocolate flavours. If you are not interested in keeping the tuffles vegan, you can add white chocolate and you will not be dissapointed!
  • Try different combinations of dried fruit and healthy wholegrain cereals. It’s a great way to add more fibre to your snacks and you may create a masterpiece!
  • You can coat with matcha powder. The truffles are firm and sticky thanks to the dried prunes, so coating with powder wil be easy!
  • You can use the same igredients to make an amazing oatmeal! Just add more water and chill in the fridge overnight. If you make two servings, each serving will contain 143 kcal and 23g of net carbohydrates.
