Keep Strawberry Bliss Truffles Fresh with These Tips

  • Freezer Love Technique: Wrap individual truffles in parchment paper, then place inside a sealed freezer bag to extend their shelf life up to 3 months without compromising taste or texture quality.
  • Quick Chill Method: Before serving, remove truffles from cold storage 10-15 minutes in advance, allowing them to soften slightly and develop maximum flavor complexity at room temperature.
  • Moisture Guard Approach: Always use a clean, dry spoon when retrieving truffles and avoid condensation by keeping the container tightly sealed to prevent unwanted flavor absorption or textural changes.

Description

White chocolate strawberry bliss truffles combine luxurious Swiss chocolate with fresh California strawberries. Rich ganache centers coated in creamy white chocolate create an elegant dessert promising pure indulgence for passionate chocolate enthusiasts.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 250 grams (8.8 oz) white cooking chocolate
  • 150 grams (5.3 oz) white cooking chocolate (for coating)
  • 80 milliliters (2.7 fl oz / ⅓ cup) thickened cream
  • 15 grams (0.5 oz / 2 tbsps) freeze-dried strawberries (or strawberry powder)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Strawberry Base: Pulverize freeze-dried strawberries in a food processor, sifting through a fine mesh sieve to eliminate seeds and create a smooth, uniform powder.
  2. Create Ganache Foundation: Warm heavy cream in a saucepan until it reaches a gentle simmer, then remove from heat. Finely chop white chocolate and place in a heat-resistant bowl. Pour hot cream over chocolate, allowing it to rest for 2 minutes before whisking into a glossy, smooth ganache.
  3. Flavor Integration: Thoroughly incorporate strawberry powder into the ganache, ensuring complete and even flavor distribution. Cover the surface directly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3-4 hours until completely firm.
  4. Shape Truffles: Using a small cookie scoop, portion the chilled ganache and roll into perfect spheres with cool, clean hands. Stabilize the truffle balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and briefly chill in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to maintain shape.
  5. Coating and Finishing: Gently melt additional white chocolate using careful microwave intervals. Dip each chilled truffle, ensuring complete and even coating with a dipping fork. While chocolate remains warm, sprinkle crushed freeze-dried strawberries on top for a decorative finish.
  6. Final Set: Return truffles to the refrigerator for a final 30-minute chill to achieve a perfect, glossy exterior and allow flavors to fully develop.

Notes

  • Precision Matters: Use a fine mesh sieve to remove strawberry seeds and clumps, ensuring a silky-smooth powder for an impeccable texture.
  • Temperature Control: Warm cream gently to prevent scorching, removing from heat immediately after reaching a soft simmer to protect delicate flavors.
  • Chocolate Melting Technique: Microwave white chocolate in short intervals, stirring between each to prevent burning and create a smooth, glossy ganache.
  • Handling Truffles: Keep hands cool and clean when rolling ganache to maintain perfect spherical shape and prevent melting during preparation.
