Delicious!! I was concerned that it might be far too sickly sweet, but it tasted so good with the hard chocolate shell and the softer richer inside. Adding salt to the truffles is optional and I’d definitely recommend as it contrasts nicely with the sweeter coating. Might have to get a melon baller as it is a bit of a mess trying to shape. They store well – the only thing I’d warn if making as a gift is that my fondant’s colouring bled into the royal icing after a week or so. All in all I found it easy to follow but give yourself a fair bit of time to make them as they can be a bit fiddly at times. 4.5/5 though because they taste amazing.

In reply to Janie Undis. Hiya! Double cream is the fattiest liquid cream in the UK, so you would need to use your equivalent. Hope this helps! x

Hi there, I’m thinking about making these but I’m wondering, what is double cream? I’ve heard of whipping cream, or heavy cream.

Thanks in advance

In reply to Alison. Absolutely, they'll be fine for 3-4 days at room temp! Hope this helps! x

Hey! I would love to make these for Christmas gifts.
Just wondered if they would be ok left out at room temperature after making? If so, how long?
Thanks

I looked in hobbycraft and couldn’t find the boxes, and amazon search only gives me much bigger (16 truffles) or much smaller boxes (2-4 truffles). Please could you let me know what dimensions the boxes are that you have used as 9 truffles seems a perfect amount?! or even better, if at all possible, a link to the boxes you have on this post?
Thanks in advance x

Really want to gift done if these for Christmas!!!

Would it work to roll these truffles in cocoa powder rather than dunked in chocolate?

Just thinking of putting a few different decoration styles together.

Hi Jane The box that you have used to display the truffles in, where did you get this. I am going to make these and give them as gifts. Thanks
