French chocolate truffles usually sell for $25-$50 per pound. But were able to offer this great price because we buy a very large quantity for a corporate client. We ordered a few extras, and were passing the savings on to you. However, we have limited quantities. Once theyre gone, we will not be able to re-stock. We offered these same chocolate truffles last year, and we sold our very quickly! In fact, our offering of these chocolate truffles was the #1 seller on Amazon last year.

The best August 3, 2008
These are my favourite truffles! They just melt in your mouth. They're lightly dusted with cocoa on the outside. I recommend you store them in the fridge. I find them better cold.

Not a truffle at all July 23, 2008

This supposed truffle had virtually no chocolate flavor; the dusting of dark chocolate was not evident. The filling was unlike any truffle I have ever had--more like a pasty "fudge". In addition the first ingredient is palm oil, this is a saturated fat. The second is sugar, and the third is reduced fat(why bother?)cocoa powder whey,then finally cocoa powder. I only wish I had seen the ingredients before I purchased them. The price should have alerted me, a 2.2- pound box of decent truflles made with cocoa mass, etc. couldn't possilby be made for the mount sold on amazon. Caveat emptor!

There is no accounting for taste, is there? July 16, 2008

I don't mean to be disrespectful to the other reviewers - and we are all wired a bit differently, I know, especially the taste buds - but these truffles are substandard and quite nearly inedible.

You people are simply not chocolate connoisseurs or, simply put, you have never had "proper" truffles. How could ANYONE imagine that these are the best chocolates they have ever eaten? It staggers the mind.

Do yourselves a favor and try some real, well-made truffles - you will be surprised. These are NOT it - even though these are made in France - that was the reason I bought them! The person for whom I purchased these candies said "these things are a triumph of quantity over quality." How true, how true.

How can one champion a truffle that lists as its very first ingredient PALM OIL - followed by SUGAR and Reduced Fat Cocoa Powder and then WHEY? Palm Oil, Sugar and Whey do not, in this case, contribute to a quality product. These things taste as if a third-grader whipped them up - they are leaden, oily, and, yes, A TRIUMPH OF QUANTITY OVER QUALITY. Triste!

I'm in the minority, but... May 17, 2008

I really didn't like these truffles. (ducking and running)

To me, a truffle, is creamy and almost fluffy, with a little air as part of the filling in the middle, only a tiny bit firmer than chocolate ganache'. It also has a touch of sweetness, nothing overbearing, but not that mouthfeel and pucker of unsweetened bitter chocolate.

I was gravely disappointed. These truffles were like miniature hockey pucks, dusted in so much cocoa powder that I dusted the front of my shirt (nothing new) when I went to eat them. I was all set to go and devour when the package arrived, but ugh. I ended up storing these in the freezer, where I'll use them in a nice brownie or other chocolate dessert. Otherwise, they'll end up getting pitched when I clean the freezer.
