Frequently Asked Questions

What Are Chocolate Truffles Made From?

Chocolate truffles are produced by rolling chocolate ganache into a ball and dusting it with cocoa powder. Chocolate ganache itself is made by combining chocolate and double cream, heating the mixture up, and allowing it to cool for a few hours. This candy does not actually include any genuine truffles.

What Chocolate Should Be Used To Make Chocolate Truffles?

Any reasonable quality chocolate will work when manufacturing truffles, but a nice semi-sweet chocolate with around 60% cacao content is the best ingredient to use to create the perfect, not-too-sweet flavor.

The recipe may call for butter and/or corn syrup in addition to the chocolate and cream used to make the ganache.

How Long Does It Take To Chill Chocolate Truffles?

Before rolling the truffles into balls, the ganache should be chilled for at least an hour or two, allowing the mixture to harden enough to mold into shape.

If you don’t want to make the truffles right away, pour the chocolate ganache into an airtight container and freeze it for up to 1-2 months, then defrost and use when needed.

How Do You Make Truffles At Home?

Chocolate and heavy/whipping cream are two essential ingredients when creating truffles (although other recipes may require further ingredients). The cream is warmed and poured onto broken up chocolate, then this mixture is whipped until a ganache is produced.

The truffles are then shaped into little spheres, and then dipped in chocolate or rolled in cocoa powder once the ganache has completely set. To finish, the truffles may be covered with crushed candy or nuts of your choice, or they can be left plain.

Final Thoughts

Chocolate truffles are perfect all year round, and there will definitely be a recipe for every person in this list. We hope you have fun trying them all out.

Enjoy!
