The chocolate truffle got its name from the fungal fruiting body called ‘truffle’. They grow underground and are found by truffle hogs. They are covered in dirt and are misshappen balls. Truffles are valued for their earthy and musty essence that it lends to food.
Chocolate truffles were named becase of their similarity to the fungus.
The truffle truffle was decadent. It was handrolled in cocoa powder and made to look like its namesake.
The porcini truffle was equally decadent. It was handrolled in grand cacao powder and sugar.
