What 'flavour' of crio bru did you all use for your Power balls please?

Cavalla is the best one, I tried Coca River found it a bit bitter for my taste, nice with maple syrup in it, ;D but that is defeating the purpose of drinking it for all its health reasons. I drink Cavalla black and have found that I don't crave chocolate when I drink it regularly. 
I child-proofed my house, but they still get in!

I love crio bru!!! Have you tried the crio smoothie? My kids are having it for breakfast and it fills them up and keeps them full. I bought the cavalla and coca river and I think I prefer the coca river.

I added crio brewed granules (the leftover from prevous brews) to my protein / banana smoothie this morning!  YUM!

Powerballs are amazing!!!!  Just made some but didn't have enough almonds.  Used 3/4  hazelnuts and 1/4 almond flakes that I dry roasted in a frypan before adding..
They are VERY rich (chocolate wise).  I made them for a morning tea Thursday but fear there won't be any left by then!!  Think they should last a while, as there is nothing that would really go off- fruit, nuts, maple syrup, crio...
Give these 10/10!!  Thanks Tenina!!!   ;D

YAY, I Love Crio and I love the Power Balls, they really do fill you up and so great for a quick on the go breakfast…sounds ridiculous I know…but really! Amazing stuff!

Glad to see how much you are all enjoying it. Please keep asking for it at stores, as that will push them to stock it!

CrioBruOz will price shipping to the UK if you ask…not sure how much you want or therefore how much it would cost, but very helpful.
Joanne asked for the powerball recipe and even though Kathrine put it up in this thread already, here it is again…enjoy!

I can't seem to get the power ball recipe off Tenina's website  :(

Does anyone have it or is it likely to have been removed due to copyright?

We've only just got into Crio bru and loving it - and I'd love to do more than just drink it!

I made these tonight.

Substituted craisins for cherries, used raisins instead of currants and isn't bother roasting the almonds.

Easy to make and taste is delicious.  They are very rich I don't think you'd eat more than one or two at a time.

Finally found a good use for my crio as I didn't really like it as a drink.

That's good. It gives a lovely flavour to lots of things.
