Truffles

Following the successful launch of our Chocolate Bar line, we are now diligently working on our selection of delectable truffles. As with our Chocolate Bars, we are committed to using natural and organic ingredients wherever possible. Our truffles will feature fresh fruit purees, fresh cream, and a variety of organic nuts, natural extracts and botanicals. We are excited to reintroduce some of our customers’ old favorites alongside new flavours, including the enticing Coconut Liqueur, Almond, and Tonka Bean Truffles.

In conjunction with the truffle launch, we will offer acrylic retail display units and promotional materials, all covered by our 100% Refund Policy on deposits for promotional goods and display units. We will notify all account holders in advance of this launch. Stay tuned for more details.. coming soon!

These exquisite handmade truffles are larger than average and absolutely delicious. Each truffle is hand-rolled, sprinkled with rich cocoa powder, and drizzled with both dark and white chocolate infused with vanilla.

The Magic of Tonka Beans

Tonka beans are a perfect complement to cocoa beans, sharing a similar culinary prestige. Both are often referred to as “Foods of the Gods.”

The tonka bean is a seed from the tropical tree “Dipteryx odorata,” which can grow up to 30 meters tall. This tree also produces teak, a very hard wood. The fruits resemble small mangoes and are harvested at the end of winter. The beans, which are the seeds of these fruits, are dried for almost a year.

The preparation process is similar to that of cocoa beans, starting with the fermentation of the beans inside the fruit, which gives them their brown color. The beans are then separated from the fruit and dried gradually, first in the shade and then in the sun, for almost a year.

A Culinary Delight

Tonka beans are prized in French cuisine and perfumery for their complex flavor profile, which includes notes of vanilla, almond, clove, cinnamon, and amaretto. While they share a sweet aroma similar to vanilla, honey, and almonds, tonka beans also have undertones of spices and tobacco, adding depth to their flavour.

To enhance our truffles, we use Polish Coconut Liqueur, blending it into a creamy white chocolate ganache dip.

A Warm, Luxurious Treat

Just 20 seconds in a microwave transforms these truffles into a warm, indulgent chocolate treat. It’s an experience not to be missed!

Elegant Presentation

Our truffles are presented in a gift box, accompanied by a heart-shaped palm leaf tray and a palm leaf dipping pot with two bamboo skewers. This delightful item will be available starting June 10, 2024.

Stay tuned for more details and prepare to treat yourself and your customers!
