Donckels Cocoa Dusted Chocolate Truffles - 1 LB Box (2-Pack)

These are amazing! They melt in your mouth. The only suggestion I would make is to keep them in a place you can seal them. They don't come in a resealable bag. They dry out too fast if you leave them in the container. They are rich in flavor and almost remind me of Frango mints, except for the mint flavor. The chocolate is so smooth. Trust me after you try them you will want to give them as a gift. I tried some my sister in law got as a gift and immediately had to find them here.

Donchels Cocoa Dusted Belgian Chocolate Truffles is really a superb candy. In my experience they have only been bested by fresh chocolates, ones that have been prepared that very same day, (e.g., in NYC, a store called Li-Lac, cooks their deserts that very same day and when they run out of them, they run out. They don't try to fake it by using yesterday's product.But barring those unusual offerings. Donchels is at the top of my list (for truffles). The outer candy is firm, but not not crunchy, and the inner chocolate cream was soft, sweet, and simply melted in my mouth.I did not experience the gastrointestinal "issues" that some of the other reviewers here speak of because I limited myself to 3 of the truffles spread out through the day (the last being at bedtime). That way I was always looking forward to something a bit later (and it took much will to avoid "cheating"), Certainly during the winter months, shipping should not be a problem (not so for late spring through late fall...these puppies tend to melt unless they are taken very good care of until delivery...I can't speak to that since I've always ordered them in cool/cold environments). My advice: give them a try during the winter.

I have bought these many years ago and again this year. I gave them as a gift and ate 3 entire pounds! These are what fancy truffles taste like. These are in a gold foil package but should be in more gift-able packaging considering how delectable they are. They are rich and solid chocolate dusted in cocoa powder. They literally melt in your mouth and are delicious. They are perfect for pairing with red wine or coffee. The price on these is ridiculously reasonable when these truffles are in a class of their own. They are perfect to serve to guests. Also, they don't have a bunch of fillers and preservatives.

So..I was Sooo excited to get these truffles. I love truffles but can never really find any really goid ones so I happened upon these and ordered them. Today I was so anxious to get home because I knew they would be here waiting for me and after the week I had I figured I desreved a treat. Anyway, I just got home, sat down, and opened my anxiously awaited box of truffles......only to find what I really ended up with was a block of chocolate. Soooo disappointed!!!! I mean, really, how old are these that they had time to sit and melt into a pound block of chocolate anyway???Sadly, this will be the one and only time I order from them...and this item can't be returned...therefore no refund.I wouldn't recommend these to anyone.....ever. :-(

I have had some amazing chocolate in my life but these... these made me want to slap Betty White while choking out Bob Barkers cat they were SOOO good! Good does not even begin to describe these little heavenly poop balls of ecstasy... i am pretty sure that touching one of these mouthgasms to your tongue instantly transfers your soul to the devil, and I'm okay with that! Seriously people, you will never look at any other chocolate the same... you will be blind from eating so many of these decadent diabetes pills!

Same great taste as previously purchased truffles, hence the five star rating. BUT I ordered and received them during October (hoped for cooler weather) intending to give two of the three packages as gifts. Items arrived quickly, but when I opened all three, I saw that the chocolates in each bag had fused together into brown masses similar to some abstract art sculpture. Rather than giving two as gifts, my wife and I will be forced to eat all three over the next several weeks slicing off a gob here and there. Although this is a very delicious prospect, our intended recipients who are familiar with these truffles were extremely disappointed. Next time, I'll try to find them in a conventional retail outlet to avoid meltdown during transit.

I loved the taste of them. I don't really like American chocolate all that much. I enjoy Cadbury's, Milka, Kinder and others from Europe. These are nothing like American chocolates I tasted (Probably because they're Belgian) and they have a VERY rich taste. Sadly someone put them in their car on a hot day, left them there for hours and I received a mushy liquid. I refrigerated it and it formed together as one giant piece. The melting did not make it taste bad and it was hard to eat all at once because of how rich it is. If you like that sorta thing, I recommend.

I like this truffles. 👍
