RAW LAMINGTON BLISS BALLS

Lamingtons to me are a gorgeous blend of coconut, chocolate, raspberry goodness. I always loved the ones with the jam and cream in the middle and I thought it would be hard to recreate in a bliss ball but I was wrong! These little bites manage to capture all the freshness of the raspberries, decadence of the chocolate and crunch of the coconut all in one! Give them a go this Australia Day!
