That your kids will *actually* eat! Because let’s face it, there’s no point in going to the effort of making or building a healthy lunchbox if they’re not going to eat it.
Everyone eats differently though so test these out (even a half batch – my favourite way to test new sweet treats) on a weekend and see if they float, if not (more for you to snack on parents / carers!) don’t pack, if they do – what a win!
