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. Order your chocolate truffles now, before we run out!





Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - good product but way overpriced
These truffles are melt-in-your-mouth delicious but, when you add the shipping in and the fact that returns aren't accepted for any reason, they are NOT worth the price. I found truffles at our local warehouse club identical to these less than a week after I ordered from here. They were less than $9 for 3 pounds - and no outrageous shipping fees.

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 ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - There is no accounting for taste, is there?

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 ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - I'm in the minority, but...
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 ... Read More
