So lovely to hear of your little boy’s progress, and your ability, despite your sorrow, to really enjoy and appreciate it. Due to many ear infections, which meant that she missed out on picking up certain sounds at crucial moments, my daughter was a late talker, preferring to scream and point instead. Life became so much nicer and much less frustrating for her, when those magical first words came. Enjoy these precious times, and his adoration! Wishing you happy, special moments today, and every day. xx
Thank you Wendy. I appreciate your kind words and the insight to your own little story. Yes, I too have found there is much less frustration when words are discovered. Thanks for writing. xxx
These are such gorgeous words I also absolutely adore chatting with my little man who knew a few disjointed sentences could make your heart swell so much!
Thank YOU. Yes they sure are precious little moments. x
Hello! I have just found your lovely site and tried to make these tonight with my daughter. We couldn’t get the mixture to stay together and as a result I have a lovely bowl of coconut and honey. Any ideas? Yours looks so buttery and luscious.
Hmmm, I would try adding some coconut oil and blending again. Perhaps press it into a lined loaf tin if you cannot get it to form balls. Are you using a food processor?
Thank you. Yes I am. Maybe I didn’t leave them on long enough. I’ll try again! I ended up toasting the ingredients i had and sprinkle them over fruit in the morning!
YUM! I think that sounds delicious!
I left mine whizzing in the food processor for ages but I still had the same problem. A tbsp or so of almond milk fixed it though – yummy!
Perfect Chris, thank you. Coconut milk is also an option.
Just made these – thanks for the milk tip Chris, was having the same issue but a dash of soy milk made the mixture just right! Thinking of trying some additions next time – maybe some fruit or cocoa powder. Has anyone else tried?
We have added cacao and it is lovely. x
How many does this recipe make?
Sorry I never think to add that in! From memory I made around 10. x
This was the first thing I made when I came across your wonderful recipes. I added a dash of coconut milk to help the mixture do,e together more easily. Thanks 🙂
Perfect!!!! Thank YOU so much!! I am glad you enjoyed them. xx

Hi I made the coconut truffles yesterday and they came out wonderfully! Great taste and texture. Unfortunately today the leftover truffles have hardened and I’m not sure why. How are the truffles meant to be stored? Should they be stored in the fridge, freezer or left at room temperature?
Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Thank you. I am glad you enjoyed them. I would store them in the fridge but just let them sit a room temp for a little before serving if you prefer them to be softer. I hope this helps. Bianca
