A chocolate truffle is a French chocolate confectionery [1] traditionally made with a chocolate ganache centre and coated in cocoa powder, coconut, or chopped nuts. A chocolate truffle is handrolled into a spherical or ball shape. [2] The name derives from the chocolate truffle's similarity in appearance to truffles, a tuber fungus. [2]
