Ahh! But how do they taste?
I tasted the chili truffle at Dolly Mama's booth at the Durham Farmer's Market. The sensation was of moving through layers of deep chocolate notes. I relished the experience and forgot where I was. I wanted to have the same experience again, but the one truffle and its aftertaste satiated me.
Another day I tried the coconut truffle and couldn't reach the deep chocolate notes I had with the chili truffle. Then I bit into the Buddha truffle. The texture alone amazed me, crisp, mouthful with the rich, gentle ganache and brittle shell.
I'm just learning the palate of chocolate and sometimes I'll note more flavors then other times. I'll check in with you to report what I perceive.
