Butter Truffles

Chocolate Truffles are a rich and elegant, bite-sized petit four made from a creamy mixture of chocolate, cream, and butter to which various flavorings can be added (liqueurs, extracts, nuts, coffee, purees, spices, candied or dried fruits). A Chocolate Truffle mixture is really a Ganache that is rolled into mis-shaped rounds to look like the real truffle fungus that grows around the roots of trees in France and Italy. Once the truffles are formed they are then rolled in cocoa powder to simulate the 'dirt' that the real truffles grow in. While cocoa powder is the traditional coating, truffles can also be coated in confectioners (powdered or icing) sugar, toasted and chopped nuts, tempered chocolate, shredded coconut, or even shaved chocolate. 

Our blend excludes chocolate (however it pairs nicely with some nice dark chocolate) but leaves everything else in creating a nice, nutty and cookie like experience. Excellent with any dessert (or on it's own if your just looking for a warming blend).
