Definitely my favourites are the Original Beans Esmeraldas-Truffles of Toot Sweets ! They are not covered with chocolate, its just ganache andcocoa powder. So you must pick them up carefully, because they are very soft. They melt lightly and creamy, like silk on your tongue. Incredibly delicious!!

The ones I tasted were all extremely delicate: Kalamansi Lime Caramel, Passion Fruit & Rosemary Caramel, Salted Chocolate Toffee & Hazelnut Praline, Apricot & Lavender Ganache, Red Berry Madagascar and Autumn Spiced Apple.

Third: the water based ganaches of The Chocolatier Aneesh Popat. You surely can taste his passion in the chocolates. Unique combinations of ingredients. All fresh and bright. My favourite is the Rose & Cinnamon. Royalty stuff indeed.
