Eclat Chocolate

Oh la la!

Peruvian Nacional Truffles - 4pc box

As part of the best gift ever, I received a box of Eclat Peruvian Chocolates. I will go into the other half of the gift in another post down the road, but, for now, I want to focus on the truffles. There's a reason why these little gems are considered among the world's finest. They are so sweetly soft and smooth, oh SO smmmmoooth, and made with quite possibly the best chocolate in the world. They are divine in all ways: texture, flavor and quality.


From their website: Master Chocolatier Christopher Curtin pairs the finest ingredients from Peru and Australia with extensive Belgian culinary experience. Éclat’s award-winning truffle selection proves to be the most exquisite to sample and share.

In addition to the wonderful texture, these chocolates have a magnificent taste. The chocolate is pure, not too sweet but not really bitter either, and the outstanding flavor spreads evenly and freely in the mouth, coating each taste bud without being overpowering. These truffles are delicate and gourmet, but the flavor is still profound without being shocking. These are simply outstanding confections, truly outstanding. It seems a strange contradiction that something this sinful tasting can make a person feel like she's in heaven, but wow these goodies make me swoon. Incredible.

I wish I could share these with every reader, as it's nearly impossible to describe how delicious they are. It's really too bad you can't lick the image to get a taste! Trust me, though, these truffles are amazing.
