โ Frequently Asked Questions
Why are these good for digestion?
Chia seeds are extremely high in soluble fiber and absorb liquid, helping keep things moving through your gut smoothly. Combined with the fiber in raspberries, this is a genuinely gut-friendly treat, not just a "healthier" dessert.
Can I use frozen raspberries instead of fresh?
Yes, just thaw them first and drain any excess liquid so the mixture isn't too watery to hold its shape.
My chocolate coating came out clumpy โ what happened?
The chocolate likely wasn't hot enough. If it's only warm, it can seize on contact with the cold frozen ball instead of coating smoothly. Melt it until fully hot and glossy, then dip immediately.
Do I need a silicone mold?
No โ you can roll the mixture into balls by hand instead. A mold just makes them uniform and easier to pop out after freezing.
