Product Details

Premium cashews are a high-quality, nutrient-dense nut known for their rich, buttery flavor and smooth, creamy texture. Harvested from the cashew tree, these nuts undergo a meticulous process of selection and grading to ensure that only the finest cashews are chosen, making them a popular choice among health-conscious consumers and gourmet chefs alike.

Nutritionally, premium cashews are packed with essential nutrients that contribute to overall well-being. They are an excellent source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, which help reduce bad cholesterol (LDL) levels while increasing good cholesterol (HDL) levels. This makes cashews beneficial for cardiovascular health. Additionally, cashews are rich in protein, making them a great plant-based protein source for vegetarians and vegans. They also provide dietary fiber, which supports healthy digestion and helps maintain a feeling of fullness.

Premium cashews are loaded with vitamins and minerals, including magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, and iron. Magnesium is particularly important for bone health, muscle function, and regulating blood sugar levels. Cashews are also high in copper, which plays a role in energy production and the formation of collagen, promoting healthy skin and hair.

Versatile in their uses, premium cashews can be enjoyed as a snack on their own, roasted or raw, or used in a variety of dishes. They are a common ingredient in desserts, salads, curries, and stir-fries. Additionally, they can be blended into creamy cashew butter or non-dairy cashew milk, offering delicious alternatives for those with dietary restrictions.

Cashew Date Bliss Balls


Main Ingredients

For Cashew Date Bliss Balls:

  • 1 cup cashew nuts (unsalted)
  • 1 cup seedless dates (soft, Medjool preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons desiccated coconut (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional for extra nutrition)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt

For Rolling (Optional):

  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons desiccated coconut
  • 1 tablespoon crushed cashews

Instruction

Step 1 - Soften the Dates

  • If your dates are dry or hard, soak them in warm water for 5-10 minutes. Drain and pat dry before using.

Step 2 - Blend the Cashews

  • Add cashews to a food processor or blender and pulse until you get a coarse powder. Avoid over-blending into cashew butter.

Step 3: Make the Bliss Ball Mix

  • Add the dates, vanilla extract, chia seeds (if using), salt, and desiccated coconut to the ground cashews. Blend until the mixture becomes sticky and forms a dough-like consistency. Scrape the sides in between as needed.

Step 4: Roll Into Balls

  • Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions and roll into smooth balls using your hands. If the mixture is too sticky, wet your hands slightly or chill the dough for 10 minutes before rolling.

Step 5: Coat and Store

  • Roll the bliss balls in your choice of coating — cocoa powder, coconut, or crushed cashews. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Tips for the Perfect Cashew Date Bliss Balls

  • Soft Dates Work Best: Use Medjool dates for the best texture and natural sweetness.

  • Chill Before Rolling: If the mixture is too sticky, chill it in the fridge for 10 minutes to firm it up.

  • Customizable Flavors: Add a touch of cinnamon or cardamom for extra depth, or swap vanilla with rose water for a twist.

  • Nut-Free Option: Substitute cashews with sunflower seeds or oats if you want a nut-free version.
