    Agave syrup is extremely high in fructose. This syrup may be a good alternative sweetener, but the fructose negates its health benefits. Fructose is processed by the liver, and turned into FAT. Surely there is another alternative to this?

    These look wonderful. I was wondering, if you soak the nuts or seeds first to remove phytates and make digestion easier, will they still keep well? I’m concerned about spoilage.

    Is there a substitute for dates? As I am on a sugar free diet (candida) I can’t have dried fruit. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Hi Elana,
    Love your recipe.My husband n I are just starting on a grain-free diet and he is miserable at the moment from all the breads and rice that he misses. Love that i could now cook something that is still so delicious and healthy and fits our diet.

    Quick question, how do you store these power balls? will they last a trip hiking outdoor?

    many thnks..

    I made the chocolate power bar balls for my 2-year-old grandson’s Hallowe’en party. They were a huge hit with the kids and adults! I decorated them with little orange skulls on top. I also replaced an equal amount of raw almonds for the walnuts. Next time I will also try adding coconut and coconut extract. These are definitely a keeper!!

    I planned to make these with pumpkin seeds (we are nut free) and dates, but when I went to grab the dates I realized someone had eaten them all. So, I ended up using dried cranberries instead. I had to increase the fruit and choco ratio because the seed flavor was rather intense…but over all, I used your concept and couldn’t be happier. I can only imagine the limitless possibilities with other dried fruits and seeds (or nuts if you’re not allergic). I think I’ll try cherries and hemp seed next.

    Thanks for the great idea!

    This recipe is perfect! I saw it this morning and I had to get the ingredients and make them tonight. My husband said I should put an alarm around them; we couldn’t stop eating them ;-)
