Welcome to Day #14 of Chocolate and Fruits Theme Week.

Today's Raspberry Truffles were from Dream of Sweden AB (Jonkoping, Sweden), and were imported into the U.S. by Dream of Sweden North America LLC (Atlanta, GA).

Aroma notes for these cocoa-dusted truffles included: fairly strong raspberry flavoring, and subtle chocolate (cocoa). Flavor notes included a smooth, creamy chocolate-y taste as well as the prominent raspberry flavoring.

Texture: creamy with a rapid, almost buttery, decadent melt. (Vegetable fat was the number one ingredient.)

I liked the chocolate-y flavor, and really liked the texture and melt. I also appreciated the resemblance to "real", cocoa-dusted chocolate truffles from Europe (vs. the large chocolate covered bonbons that are sometimes referred to as chocolate truffles in the U.S.).

I wasn't as fond about the raspberry flavors. It tasted like the raspberry fruit was amped up with artificial flavor. (It was. Note: I don't care for added artificial or "natural" flavors.) The long ingredients list and artificial flavor(s) were the reasons for the slightly lower rating.

The sweetness level was about what most people will expect for truffles. (They were sweet, but not excessively so.)

Ingredients: Vegetable fat (Coconut, palmkernel), sugar, fat reduced cocoa powder (12%), whey powder (Milk), raspberry flakes (0.6%) (raspberry 40%, sugar 35%, maize starch 25%), emulsifier (Soya lecithin), artificial flavors (vanilla and raspberry)
