If you ask me, Christmas Truffles is a genius way of getting a taste of all your favourite Christmas desserts, without overeating. This is because any flavour combination you can dream of can magically transform into a bite sized Christmas Truffle treat. In this article there are 15 of the most inventive and unique Christmas truffle flavours. Why not do something different this year and have a Christmas Truffle smorgasbord?

How Complicated are Christmas Truffles?

Christmas truffles are not complicated at all! In fact, I would go so far as to say that they are the simplest way to have your Christmas dessert. Why? For the most part, truffles are a blitz-and-miz, shape-and-chill affair. They require no baking. They are best made a day ahead (to set), taking a bit of pressure off Christmas Day itself.

Compared to a traditional Christmas dessert, such as Pudding, Trifle, Tiramisu, gateaux, or Pavlova, truffles are fuss free. These desserts require different layers, elements and techniques. They involve multiple recipes for the one dessert!

Christmas Truffles, on the other hand, only require the flavour. Everything else is to bind the little balls. Cream, cream cheese, butter, or chocolate. They require very few ingredients to achieve the flavour you want and to master the classic Truffle consistency.

Wouldn’t it be so much easier (and way more fun) do prepare a range of 2 – 3 different flavours of Christmas Truffles, rather than breaking your neck over the same number of desserts? And they are equally gratifying and impressive!

Well, buckle your seats, friends, and prepare to be inspired by just how many Christmas desserts you can convert into a truffle!
