Truffs

Pleasure comes in small parcels.

Of these delightful truffles, hand made with love.

Each type of cocoa carries with it its signature taste.

66% antilles was sweet and nutty in fragrance.

70% honduras was slightly more sharp and acidic than I thought.

I now know them like my new found friends.

Pure unadulterated smooth dark chocolate truffles. No fillings, just the way I like them.

The pure cocoa taste, and no distractions in between.

No preservatives, just pure pleasure.

Smooth and indulgent.

Each morsel of pure pleasure. Oooohhh, I love love love.

Each of these humble looking truffles, taste so devine. So so so... ooh.

I can't even begin to describe.

At home I carefully unwrapped the packaging, carefully chose 2 humble looking truffles and placed them in a glass dish. To let them breathe, rest and soften slightly.

They taste so different when just taken from the fridge, and when softened slightly. The aroma, the texture, the aftertaste. All taste better, somehow, just at the right moment.

Fresh from the fridge, the casing cracks from the cold. Honduras was sharp and acidic.

10 min later, the casing and the filling blended well on bite, the flavours more rounded and harmonised. Perfect, but don't wait too long else it melts into a gooey mess.

Best enjoyed at the right moment, don't rush into them. Just like women (!). Don't wait too long to enjoy either, they just turn messy and sticky. Bwah haha!!

Have a visit to the store where the chocolate artisans will sit you down and explain in detail the various types of cocoa and their characteristics. I never knew buying chocolates could be as pleasurable as eating them.

They also offer chocolate cakes, made to order. I cannot wait to try.

And I know just the person who'd love to join me.
