New vegan white chocolate raspberry truffles

by

Have you almost gotten a handle on gift buying for Christmas?

Good. I’m here to tell you about your next vegan gift giving opportunity.

Valentine’s Day!

Moo Free are one of my favourite sweet treats companies on the planet and I’m thrilled to hear about this new product they are launching in 2020.

Inspired by their Hazelnut Truffles that hit the shelves recently, Moo Free has now created the perfect self-indulgent treat or thoughtful gift.

The heart-shaped truffles are filled with a soft raspberry centre which uses a unique raspberry concentrate mixture to achieve its mouthwateringly wonderful flavour.

Made from a white chocolate alternative recipe, these tasty new truffles are created using UTZ certified cocoa in association with the Rainforest Alliance, which helps support sustainable farming and provides better opportunities for farmers, their families, and our planet.

Produced in Devon, these new Moo Free truffles are certified vegan and are gluten and soya free.

Moo Free‘s White Raspberry Truffles will be available to buy from their online factory store (you can pre order now) and in a select number of Waitrose stores at the RRP of £4.99.

Truffle Pig in Sheffield

Here’s a snappy little post to get you acquainted with a cute-as-a-button treat business called Truffle Pig.

This Sheffield-based chocolate artist has so many reasons why I think you should be excited by her, I’ve gone ahead and listed them:

  • Truffle Pig founder Lily has dedicated the business to her chocolate-loving Nanna, Doris Gaskill
  • Lily is a musician and roller derby athlete
  • DIY underpins pretty much all she does
  • A portion of profits from Truffle Pig is donated to animal charities

OK. I’ve sung Lily’s praises enough and you wanna see the good stuff, right?

Well, before I post some tasty photos I want you to know you can order these handcrafted delights online from Lily directly. Get to the Truffle Pig website to shop for delights that will be posted straight to you!
