Rescue Chocolate Truffles and Bon Bons

Earlier this week, I shared those marvelous Like White Chocolate Bars by Rescue Chocolate. Well, I have another surprise: they also handcraft truffles and bon bons!

Like everything they do, Rescue Chocolate Truffles are far from ordinary. The geometric shapes are somewhat thick shells of their Like White or quite Dark chocolate with comforting fillings.

I’m not quite sure what the difference is between a truffle (the lighter pictured ones below) and a bon bon (the dark chocolate ones pictured below) as both seem to have the same general appearance and coating-filling relationship.

Tasting Notes for Rescue Chocolate Truffles

Salted Caramel Bow Wow Bon Bons

The center is more of a melt in your mouth, ganache meets caramel experience. Far less sticky or chewy than you might expect, but still messy! The outer chocolate shell is deep, dark, and a bit rustic, but not overly bitter. Overall a very grown-up taste with sweet-savory notes that are rich and addictive.

Spectacular Speculoos White Chocolate Truffles

Holy nut butteriness! Though the center is pure wheat-based cookie butter, the nutty Like White Chocolate (made with cacao butter, cashews, cane sugar, chia seeds, Brazil nuts, almonds, vanilla bean powder, and sea salt) sets the flavor tone. It has a unique peanut butter cup-like vibe, that is somehow more refined and yet more rustic. It’s sweet, but also tastes a touch wholesome.

Cookies ‘n Cream White Chocolate Truffles

Unlike the others, these seem more solid throughout with a Like White Chocolate base and a crunchy cookies ‘n cream core. This flavor definitely shouts “time for dessert!” with its thick, slabs of nutty white chocolate and coarsely crushed sandwich cookies. What’s not to love?
