Delicious Recipes For Champagne Truffles

By Jaclyn Hurley


There are certain desserts that automatically make a person think of special occasions. Wedding cakes or cupcakes are expected for marriages. Rich, chocolate desserts are popular for birthdays. Dinner out at an Italian restaurant usually means cheesecake. But when considering an anniversary celebration or even a Valentine's Day delight, there are dozens of delicious recipes for champagne truffles.

Even though there is a type of mushroom that carries the same name, in this case it is not being considered a delicious treat. Instead, we are talking about the unique confectioner's creation designed by Teuscher. This treat is a dark chocolate ganache, rolled in finely dusted powdered sugar. But it is the inside that stands out. The center is a rich, creme infused with Dom Perignon.

The original recipe called for the finest ingredients available. This, of course, meant that they were reserved for the most elegant tables and events. With that reputation came the price. For the every day individual, there was never going to be a time when they could afford to purchase those tasty delights. But, human ingenuity won out. Once the basic ingredients were known, individual's began experimenting with their own recipes.

Even if a person is not a particularly fantastic cook, there are dozens of recipes that are easy to follow. Doing a specific web search for a user friendly method, it is as easy as typing the words into a search engine with quotation marks around it. Once the search is complete, there are hundreds of options available at the click of a mouse. Take some time to peruse the offerings and select one that best suited to one's experience.

What makes this dessert particularly unique is the fact that there are many variations that can be done. Any time one is adapting a recipe, it is best to start with decoration rather than recipe. An interesting way to take this already delicious chocolate delight to the next level is to add gold leafing. Leafing is 14 karat gold foil that is extremely delicate, but edible. When applied with a dry paint brush, the golden color almost looks like the bubbles in the glasses.

Another tasty option is using a milk chocolate mix instead of dark chocolate. The basic instructions stay the same, however, instead of wrapping the liquored center in a rich, dark ganache it is rolled in liquid milk chocolate. Not only is it a delicate flavor, the color looks like rich caramel. Again, the completed and dried eggs look great in a glass bowl.

A unique twist on the recipe is making the truffles pink to go with the signature drink. In this case, after the creme center is hardened, white chocolate is used with a splash of cherry or strawberry gelatin to tint the exterior. It is not quite as rich of a taste, but delicious nonetheless.

There is no reason to celebrate special occasions with the same desserts year after year. Rather than purchasing a box of standard chocolate candies, it is just as easy to make a delicious treat by hand. Not only will it show the special person that they are worth the extra effort, but it proves that it is possible to think outside of the box.
