Taking Monster Eyes Truffles To The Next Level!

This truffle recipe is quite a soft truffle. It tastes amazing and just melts on the tongue. If you are setting these out at a party, I would recommend placing the individual truffles in paper candy cups. It will make it easier for your guests to pick them up and enjoy them.

We chose this type of soft truffle because we thought it lended itself really well to the whole Monster Eyes effect. Want to know more about making truffles? Check out our Candy Science Lab exploring the art and science of truffle making.
