Special occasions are known for their decadent desserts. As with most things, there are usually delicious items that are associated with the event. For weddings, there is almost always two cakes. For birthdays, the ever popular cupcakes come to mind. If eating something specific, like Italian, cheesecakes are perfect. However, when wanting to celebrate a truly special event, like an anniversary, making champagne truffles is sure to please.
Although the name might lead one to believe this decadent dessert is based on a mushroom, don't worry. While there are mushrooms that are similarly named, that is where the resemblance stops. In fact, this confectioner's delight was initially made popular by Teuscher. The signature touch was the addition of a rich, creme Dom Perignon center surrounded by a dark chocolate ganache. It was then rolled in a light coating of confectioner's sugar.
The original recipe called for the finest ingredients available. This, of course, meant that they were reserved for the most elegant tables and events. With that reputation came the price. For the every day individual, there was never going to be a time when they could afford to purchase those tasty delights. But, human ingenuity won out. Once the basic ingredients were known, individual's began experimenting with their own recipes.
As with most things nowadays, finding fantastic recipes are as easy as a web search. When searching for a quality recipe, type the term in quotation marks to ensure that everything that comes up is relevant to the search. Once the browser returns the options, there are literally hundreds of sites that can be chosen from. Each location may have multiple options to review. Then it comes down to selecting the best match.
Even though dessert is often forgone due to calories and weight watching, special times often warrant great desserts. While the traditional recipe is always delicious, there are creative twists to make them even better. One such twist is to wrap the warm dark chocolate ball with gold leafing which is edible. The sheets of leafing are so thin that they must be brushed on with a dry makeup brush. But once completed, the results are stunning.
Once feeling confident, changing the type of chocolate used in the truffles can make it taste entirely different. Substituting a rich, milk chocolate instead of the traditional dark ganache, enhances the beautiful color to that of caramel. Its golden sweet taste is subtle, but still has the traditional texture and base flavor of the original.
Many individual's like the look and taste of pink champagne. Including a twist on the color of the dessert can be captivating and opulent. After the base of the creme is complete, melting white chocolate with a red gelatin provides a dainty pink exterior. If serving this version, placing them inside a champagne flute gives the impression of a tasty glass full of flavor.
When looking for a way to celebrate something special in your life, think outside of the box. Boxed candy holds nothing compared to a handmade dessert. Show that awesome someone just how much you care in a new and inventive manner. It will be an experience they will never forget.
