A chocolate containing everything you find in a Christmas Pudding. Fruits, nuts, spices and of course Courvoisier... you will love the taste of this Christmas chocolate.
This is the description of the new festive truffles from CHOCOLATE CRAFT that I was sent to try recently.
I adore Christmas pudding and as you have read here before positively worship at the altar that is chocolate. To combine the too is a very clever move.
I have tried a luxury steamed Christmas pudding with chocolate and the general consensus in our house, was that we could not taste enough chocolate and it was not worth the extra money spent.
So would these Chocolate Craft truffles taste of Christmas pudding?
They come in a lovely little pouch, six truffles,
When I opened the box I was already getting a scent of cognac, as I open the bag inside, I get an immediate fruit, spice and brandy aroma.
I can tell these fragrant delights are handmade, each one unique, the rough flakes, the slightly different size and roundness.
The Alresford Chocolate Company make award-winning chocolates. They say their mission is to craft stylish and distinctive chocolates that taste as good as they look.
Using fresh Hampshire cream and the finest natural ingredients, the chocolates are made with uncompromising quality by expert chocolatiers using traditional artisan methods.
To the best bit of any review, the taste, I already know these are going to be delicious, I can see it, I can smell it.
As I bite, trying desperately not to gobble the lot in one go, its a definite Christmas pudding and a darn good one, I can taste fruit, cream, vanilla and heavenly Courvoisier.
The truffle is creamy, smooth, then I get a fruit piece, I looked at the ingredients and there are raisins and cranberries in the truffle, this works so well.
The ingredients are all natural too, orange, almond , whipping cream, it reads like a real Christmas recipe.
For the purposes of this review I have described the truffle, for the purposes of my taste buds, sorry folks you will have to drool and dream, I had to eat the rest of the truffle in peace.
There are six truffles, a greedy woman (me) would say its not enough, I want a tray of these beauties. At the beginning I quoted Chocolate Craft "you will love the taste of this Christmas chocolate."
So very very true!
The other truffles in the selection sound just as delectable GRAND MARNIER® and Rich Ruby Port.
I spotted a very tempting offer on the Chocolate Craft site too, you I did debate long and hard as to whether to share it, but its Christmas... can become a Chocolate Taster for them.
I entered and I have everything crossed!!
