Fancy a sweet treat? But are you worried it will lead to you undoing all the hard work you have put into creating a healthier and happier you?
We know that some days are harder than others, and on those days it can take all your willpower not to reach for the biscuit tin, or the chocolate box, especially when others around you are tucking in. And if you are having a bad day or feeling under the weather, we tend to crave all the things that are just not good for us.

And did we mention just how simple these are to make? There is no baking involved – just mix it all together, form into truffles and pop in the fridge for only 30 minutes.
