Barbieri Chestnut Truffles
£12.95
These had to come back for a second Christmas given their enormous popularity last year!
These truffles are the result of a collaboration with Annalisa Barbieri, Chocolate Correspondent for The Observer. Annalisa remembers her father making a wonderful chestnut and chocolate gelato, and she wanted to recreate the chocolate and chestnut pairing. After a lot of experimentation and tasting notes going back and forth, these delicious truffles are the result; Clement Faugier crème de marrons (sweetened chestnut puree) blended with milk chocolate, with crunchy roasted hazelnuts which perfectly complement the chestnut flavour. The truffles are rolled in an organic 80% single origin chocolate from Uganda, then finished with a dusting of cocoa powder to balance the sweetness.
Like last year, I intend to give a percentage of profits from this item to Crisis at Christmas, an incredibly worthwhile charity providing warm meals, shelter, support and companionship at Christmas to those experiencing homelessness. I’ll donate 5% of the profit from sales of this item between now and 18th December.
Please note the usual kraft paper pots they come in are not currently available from my supplier, so your truffles may come in a black cardboard pot instead, while I wait for the usual packaging to come back into stock.
All our chocolates are packaged in plastic-free, recyclable, biodegradable packaging.
