What's in Your fruit bowl? Anything that could flavor a truffle or a chocolate bar? Probably. Today is Day #1 of Chocolate and Fruit Bowl Theme Week. I'm beginning this theme week with a Sacred Chocolate Cheeky Monkey truffle -- with a dark ganache (filling) flavored with caramelized banana, and topped off with a pecan half.
This raw, vegan chocolate truffle was one of 9 different "Truth Truffles" in a small assortment box I ordered. (I'm not sure what the "truth" part is exactly, but that's OK. I think it refers to ingredients that are authentic, organic, sustainably grown, and unprocessed.)
In 2006, my daughter bet I couldn't eat a different chocolate each day for a year. I enjoyed that year so much that, after 18+ years, I'm still eating a different chocolate every day. Happily, even after 6,600+ chocolates, there are still many more to try. Thank you to chocolate makers everywhere, and to all who continue to be part of this global adventure.
