    It was a great introductory course to making truffles. It was nice to watch the whole process and I appreciated the explanations Rob gave, especially the important considerations about when to add certain ingredients and rationale for types of ingredients. I am looking for courses on how to make molded truffles, and hoped he might have discussed these. Very personable, loved his enthusiasm and humor.
