Rose & Cardamom Bliss Balls

Soft, fragrant, and naturally sweet, these rose and cardamom bliss balls are a nourishing little ritual snack. They are grounding, gently energising, and carry a delicate floral warmth that feels both comforting and uplifting.

These were part of the Beauty & Collagen Bar during The Glow Edit morning event this Sunday. After so many requests, we decided to share the recipe online so you can recreate them at home and enjoy them in your own rituals.

Ingredients

• 1 cup raw cashews

• 1 cup raw almonds

• 1/2 cup shredded unsweetened coconut

• 1 cup pitted dates

• 1/4 cup raisins

• 2 tsp cardamom powder

• 1 tsp rose petal powder

• 1 tbsp rose water

Optional personal touch:
I used dried cranberries instead of raisins for a slightly tangy flavour, but raisins work just as well. I also added a spoon of homemade rose jam from Lebanon for a deeper floral note. This is completely optional, you can simply stick to the original recipe and use rose water.

Preparation

1. Add the almonds and cashews into a food processor and blend until finely ground.

2. Add the dates, raisins (or cranberries), shredded coconut, cardamom powder, and rose petal powder.

3. Blend again until the mixture becomes sticky and starts to come together.

4. Add rose water and pulse until fully combined. Adjust texture if needed with a little more dates or coconut.

5. Roll into small bite-sized balls using your hands.

6. Optionally roll in extra coconut, rose petal powder, or nuts.

7. Store in the fridge for up to one week.

Benefits of the Ingredients

These bliss balls are made with whole, nutrient-dense ingredients that support both beauty and vitality from within.

Raw almonds and cashews provide healthy fats, vitamin E, magnesium, and minerals that support skin elasticity, hair strength, and sustained energy. Dates offer natural sweetness along with fiber and antioxidants that help maintain energy levels throughout the day. Raisins contribute additional antioxidants and plant compounds that support overall wellness.

Shredded coconut adds nourishing fats and a satisfying texture. Cardamom is traditionally known for its digestive support and warming aromatic properties that help awaken the senses. Rose petals and rose water are widely used in holistic beauty rituals for their calming, heart-soothing effects and their connection to skin radiance and emotional balance.

Together, these ingredients create a grounding snack that feels both indulgent and supportive for the body.

Enjoy them as a mindful snack with tea, a post-yoga treat, or a soft moment of sweetness during your day.
