Truffles
are often considered the highest expression of a quality confection, celebrated for their
rich flavor and velvety texture that justify a premium price. Typically made
with chocolate and cream, truffles can be customized with different ingredients
to enhance their taste, texture and shelf-life.
Looking for a
delightful twist to your traditional truffle recipe, sure to become your next
new customer favorite?
For a
light and airy melt-in-your-mouth truffle center, whip a cooled truffle
center in the mixer until it becomes fluffy. With the incorporation of air, the
color will become noticeable lighter. The final density will be approximately
0.75 gm/Ml giving your truffles a completely different texture, while
keeping the same great flavor.
