About this deal

Treatment of immature trees: For young trees around one or two years old, make sure the area around the trunk is well weeded then sprinkle the truffle spore mixture around the tree and let it make its way down into the ground by hoeing the soil to a depth of about 10 cm. Start by chopping up your chocolate. Smaller pieces of chopped chocolate melt much more easily than big chunks. Scrape all of that delicious chocolate into a bowl along with the butter. While the chocolate coating is still wet, take the cocoa powder and drizzle it generously over the truffles. Ganache is still too soft after freezing? Your ratio of chocolate to cream may be off. You can either gently re-heat the ganache (a double boiler is best, or short bursts in the microwave followed by lots of stirring) and add more chopped chocolate...or just embrace the soft ganache and use it to glaze tortes, or enjoy it warmed for the best chocolate sauce ever. You can even use it as a base for hot chocolate. We recommend finely chopped nuts or unsweetened cocoa powder for rolling the ganache balls. But powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, and even colored or chocolate sprinkles would work! We also like to roll them in finely crushed candy canes for the holidays.

It was Auguste Escoffier who invented the first truffle recipe. He was a famous French chef who made it by accident in 1920 when a student spilled hot cream into a bowl of chocolate bits. Others say it was Louis Dufour who made them first in 1895 when trying to make new Christmas treats to sell. It was a ball of chocolate ganache rolled in cocoa powder. so I have been watching YouTube videos of pouring carnation vegan condensed milk and people pouring homemade vegan condensed milk. and there does seem to be a small difference. so I’ve been thinking. and I may add some icing sugar in to counteract the bitterness of the extra cocoa powder if I need to keep adding cocoa powder. also this will mean I don’t have to add S much cocoa powder. this may also change the consistency as icing g sugar melts. but it does also become hard when alot is added to a small amount of liquid. and as there is going to be a lot of cocoa powder as well to absorb a lot of the liquid I am not sure how the icing sugar will react. so I think I’ll make it first and see how it tastes, then if needed I’ll do a control batch and add some icing sugar to it to see what happens. if it helps to sweeten it and doesn’t go weird. then I’ll do it to the rest of the batch. if it does wrong. I’ll know not to do it to the rest of the batches. the other idea I had was to blend some sugar up and add it into the vegan condensed milk to sweeten it more before adding the cocoa powder. but that way I won’t know how much I need to add as it will have to be done before though I could do one first and guess and see how it goes and then guess the others based off that one. I’m also not completely convinced the sugar will dissolve in the vegan condensed milk. Chocolate and heavy cream are the only ingredients in homemade chocolate truffles. However, I add 2 extra ingredientsfor texture and flavor. These extras will turn your regular truffles into the BEST CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES. And after writing an entire cookbook on truffles and candy recipes, I know that’s a fact!

Add the cocoa powder: Then, pour cocoa powder through a sieve into the bowl of warm sweetened condensed milk.

To make the truffle base, place the chopped chocolate and cream in a medium heat-proof bowl. I like to use the microwave to combine the ingredients, stirring in between 20-second intervals until fully melted. You can also do this in a bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until melted. Flavors: Instead of vanilla extract, use 1/2 teaspoon or 1 teaspoon (depending how strong of a flavor you want) raspberry, coconut, orange, peppermint, or strawberry extract. Or leave out the extract and add 1-2 Tablespoons of your favorite liqueur. I also have hazelnut truffles and key lime truffles recipes too! Set up a double boiler, which is basically a heat-safe bowl placed on top of a saucepan with boiling water. Make sure the water in the pan doesn’t touch the bottom of the bowl. Use low to medium heat to keep the water simmering. How to store: Store your finished chocolate truffles in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks in an airtight container. You can serve them chilled straight from the fridge or let them sit out at for a while to come to room temperature before serving. We think they are best served at room temperature for the best texture and flavor.

Homemade truffles can last up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator and for up to 6 months in the freezer. For the best texture and flavor, bring them to room temperature before serving. Remove the mixture from the fridge. Using a small spoon, scoop out around 1 tablespoon of the mixture and shape into balls. Dip the balls into the cocoa powder, ensuring an even coating. Combine the heavy cream and honey in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat until it comes to a boil. Remove from heat and pour over the melted chocolate. Let it sit for two minutes before stirring. Stir until the chocolate has completely melted. First, Line a small rectangular mold (mine measures 4.5×6.5 inches resp. 11.5×16.5 cm) with wax paper. Make sure to add an overhang on all sides- this will make it easier to release.

If you are looking for great quality fresh truffles, we supply all seasonal varieties of fresh truffle including: Transfer the ganache to the fridge to chill for 1-2 hours. You want the ganache to be firm and scoopable, but not hard.If your cream isn’t hot enough to melt the chocolate, set the bowl of ganache over a pan of gently simmering water and stir until smooth. Using an electric mixer with a paddle attachment, combine the peanut butter, butter, 1/4 cup of the confectioner's sugar and sea salt until smooth and thoroughly incorporated.
