Oh, those truffle flavors!
I am not selling or shipping truffles at the moment; however, I do freely give out the recipe, and encourage you to create your own flavors.
Here are flavors I have made in the past:
-
Peppermint: flavored with mint, creme de menthe, and freshly ground black pepper
-
Brandy Lego bricks: these are self-explanatory, I imagine.
-
Tangerine dream: tangerine based with a dollop of vegan cream cheese laced with maple syrup and vanilla
-
Maple with spiced pecans: maple and whiskey flavors, topped with pecans toasted with brown sugar and spices
-
Orange: chocolate flowers with orange and Grand Marnier
-
Lemon-pistachio: lemon+limoncello topped with toasted pistachios
-
Pomegranate: pomegranate flavor with a good dollop of pomegranate molasses, topped with Montmorency (sour) cherries
-
Honey-almond: honey, almond, and amaretto flavors, with toasted sliced almonds
-
Tequila-lime: as you would imagine, sprinkled with smoked salt
-
Mocha-cardamom: coffee, coffee liqueur, cinnamon and cardamom — like Middle Eastern spiced coffee, only with chocolate!
-
Hot spiced rum: rum flavoring with allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, coriander, and a dollop of molasses, finished with chilli-lime sprinkles
-
Fig-anise: Fig jam enlivened with subtle anise flavor and laced with 20-year-old balsamic vinegar — sounds odd but tastes amazing!
-
Ginger: ground ginger, fresh ginger, ginger flavoring AND crystallized ginger on top!
-
Raspberry Stars: raspberry and a touch of pomegranate molasses
-
Bourbon Street Stars: bourbon flavoring with nutmeg, molasses, and a touch of chilli, dusted with brown sugar.
-
Marzipan: a base flavored with buttered rum and amaretto, topped with marzipan
And, for those who can’t eat or dislike dairy, I make several flavors with avocado and coconut oil — or Earth Balance vegan spread — rather than butter:
-
Lime-in-the-coconut — a dairy-free truffle flavored with lime, coconut, and avocado rather than butter — surprisingly delicious!
-
Mocha-cardamom — with coffee, cardamom, and cinnamon
-
Peppermint Stars — a delicate combination of essence of peppermint, creme de menthe and freshly ground pepper!
