English translation:Boost your happiness with
Explanation:
I would rewrite the sentence - English prefers verbs to nouns and "happiness-boosting nuts" sound rather translated to my ears.

Boost your happiness/Lift your mood with these elegantly soulful hazelnuts (or whatever they are), rolled in vanilla and palm sugar, etc etc.

deliciously lucky nuts


Explanation:
Might be better than "happy"; with "blissful" we would have to know what nuts feel? One would have to see the whole piece, to know what really fits in.
