Dilettante Deluxe Truffles, 4-Ounce Silver Gift Boxes (Pack of 2) Overview
Eight of Dilettantes finest hand-dipped truffles in this beautiful silver gift box with seasonal colored hand-tied bow. Total net weight 4 oz. When Dana first opened his Dilettante caf頩n the Capital Hill District of Seattle, he would stand outside with samples of his hand dipped truffles to spread the word about these exquisite chocolates. One thing his signature silver box line has in common is the faint taste of Ephemere. Ephemere is the signature flavor of Dilettante and is derived from Danas proprietary cooking method of caramelizing the butter, sugar, and cream early on in the cooking process. This method leaves a hint of unique flavor throughout all of Dilettantes truffles and cakes and from a technical perspective it extends the shelf life of these hand dipped truffles. The silver box line is comprised of the original truffles that made Dilettante what it is today!TRUFFLE ASSORTMENT INCLUDES: Ephemere Dark Chocolate, Ephemere Milk Chocolate, Hazelnut Gianduia, and Cointreau.
