I've never seen it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen! Margarine and Fondant in truffle centers sounds kind of gross actually. Definitely not for me!

Hi, I have recently seen a range of truffles using fondant and margarine in their ingredients list.

I have seen glucose and invert sugar used in making a ganache before, but fondant - I had never heard of using this.

I would imagine the margarine is used to keep the cost down, rather than using butter.

Anyone have any thoughts on using these types of ingredients in a ganache? I was pretty shocked to be honest.

Two changes we made with the chocolate is that this time we winnowed the chocolate. This time we didn't use a blow dryer to melt the chocolate. Two improvements with the chocolate is that the melanger didn't get clogged this time and everyone put in work.
