Instructions
Step 1
Start by melting the *milk chocolate* in a heatproof bowl over simmering water. Stir continuously until it's completely smooth. In another pan, gently warm the *heavy cream* until it’s just about to boil, then remove it from heat.
Next, mix the warm cream with the melted chocolate. Add the *Camembert cheese*, *glucose syrup*, and *almond paste* or crushed nuts, stirring well to combine. Allow the mixture to cool down and then refrigerate for about 1 hour until it firms up.
Once the mixture is set, use a melon baller or your hands to scoop out small portions and roll them into balls. The size is up to you, but about 2.5 cm (1 inch) is ideal. Dip each truffle in the *tempered dark chocolate* and place them on a tray lined with parchment paper. For a decorative touch, drizzle with *Royal icing*.
Step 2
Begin by melting the *white chocolate* in the same manner as before—over simmering water until smooth. On a separate heat, slightly warm the *cocoa butter* until it melts, then whisk it into the melted chocolate.
Add the *raspberry puree* to the chocolate mixture, stirring well to blend the flavors. If you're using *rose paste*, incorporate it gently at this stage as well. Allow the mix to cool, and then refrigerate for about an hour until it thickens.
Like the Camembert truffles, scoop out small portions and roll them into balls. Dip them in *tempered white chocolate* for a sweet coating. Finally, place them on parchment paper to set before enjoying!
Servings
Serve these delightful truffles at your next gathering! **Picture this**: a beautifully decorated platter filled with the Camembert-Almond truffles, drizzled with luscious tempered chocolate, sitting alongside vibrant Raspberry-Rose truffles that are just begging to be sampled. ✨ Each bite is a flavor explosion, making them perfect for parties or as an indulgent gift for loved ones. You can also pair them with a cup of aromatic tea or a luscious dessert wine for a truly sophisticated experience. 🍷
Another fun idea? Organize a truffle-making party with friends! Everyone can get creative by coating their truffles in different toppings like crushed nuts, coconut, or sprinkles. Add some games or music for an unforgettable afternoon! 🎶
Equipment
Essential for melting chocolate without burning. If you don’t have one, a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water works just as well.

Variations
If you or your guests have dietary preferences, these truffles can be adjusted to fit! 💚
Gluten-Free: Rest assured, all the ingredients used in these recipes are naturally gluten-free, including chocolate. Just be sure to check for any gluten-containing additives in flavored chocolates or toppings!
Vegan Variation: For a vegan-friendly twist, replace the heavy cream with full-fat coconut milk and use plant-based chocolate. Opt for nut or plant-based creams for alternatives to Camembert or regular cheese. You can also skip the rose paste for a lighter version. 🌱
Faq
- What type of chocolate should I use?
For the best flavor, choose high-quality chocolate. Dark chocolate (at least 60% cocoa) works great for the Camembert-Almond truffles while white chocolate is perfect for the Raspberry-Rose variety.
- How do I know when my truffle mixture is ready?
Your mixture should be smooth and well combined without any lumps. It should also be slightly thickened but still pourable.
- Can I make these truffles ahead of time?
Absolutely! They can be made several days in advance. Just store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature before serving.
- What's the best method for coating the truffles?
Using tempered chocolate for coating will give you a nice shine and snap. Dip the truffles gently with a fork and allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing them on parchment paper to set.
- Can I add flavors or mix-ins to the truffle recipe?
Yes! You can infuse flavors by adding citrus zest, espresso powder, or spices like cinnamon to the chocolate before mixing. Think outside the box for creative add-ins!
- What is the best way to store leftover truffles?
Store the truffles in a cool, dry place in an airtight container. They can last for about a week if properly stored. Enjoy them within a few days for the best texture and flavor!
