About Truffles in Chocolate - Walmart.com
How are chocolate truffles made?
Chocolate truffles are made by combining pure chocolate with scalded heavy cream and various flavorings to form a mixture called a ganache. After cooling overnight, the ganache is hand rolled into balls and dipped in cocoa powder, nuts, or candy sprinkles.
What is the best way to store chocolate truffles, and how long do they keep?
Store chocolate truffles in an airtight bag or container away from humidity and direct sunlight. Good places for storage include a cupboard, cabinet, or pantry. Because chocolate truffles contain fresh cream, they have a short shelf life of about two weeks. For longer storage, truffles can be put in the freezer for up to three months. To freeze truffles, put them in a resealable bag and place the bag in an airtight plastic container.
What's the difference between a bonbon and a truffle?
A bonbon has a soft center surrounded by a chocolate shell. The center can be made of various ingredients like ganache, fruit jelly, caramel, or nougat. A truffle is a ball of creamy ganache dipped in cocoa powder or other types of toppings.
