Soft chocolate center. Chocolate truffles have a creamy, smooth middle made from chocolate ganache, which is a mixture of chocolate and cream that melts in your mouth.

Rolled by hand. Each truffle is carefully handrolled into a ball shape, making every one slightly unique and special.

Named after a fungus. The candy is called a truffle because its bumpy, round shape looks like a truffle mushroom that grows underground in the forest.

Many coatings. Truffles are dusted or rolled in cocoa powder, shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or other toppings to give them flavor and a fancy appearance.

French invention. Chocolate truffles come from France and have been a beloved fancy chocolate treat for generations.
