French Chocolate Truffles
French chocolate truffles have the best reputation of all truffles in the world since the truffle was invented in France. Named for the small mushroom it resembles in shape, the chocolate truffle is taken so seriously that regions in France have contests on the best chocolate truffles produced.
These luxurious chocolate truffles are usually covered in milk chocolate, dark chocolate or white chocolate. The filling is called a ganache and is composed of cream and chocolate and sometimes other ingredients and flavorings are added such as fruits, nuts and liquors. A dusting of cocoa powder on the outside of the truffle makes for a taste contrast that is delightful. A package for French chocolate truffles are usually as beautiful as the candies with gold foil used within the box or clear lidded box used to make a fine gift presentation. A tin box also makes a fine quality container.
The French are known for other tasty chocolate treats, such as the chocolate éclair and the chocolate mousse. The French chocolate truffles are a very convenient way for French chocolate to be shipped to the world.
