It's not just cake-based treats that we so selflessly review for Bollocks to Baking. It's confectionery and chocolate too. And last week, the kind folks from Coco Bean very sweetly sent me a box of their handmade truffles. They arrived super-speedily in a dapper ribbon-wrapped box, and inside they looked like this:
At only £8 for this box of 12, including P&P, they're a deliciously indulgent gift idea for someone who needs celebrating or commiserating for whatever reason, and they'd be such a pleasure to receive as a surprise through the post. And for the fickle among us, you can even pick and choose your favourite flavours from this exotic menu, or ask for an assortment like the box above. My personal favourites were the banoffee and caramel options, whilst my beloved waxed lyrical about the vanilla and coconut chocolates. The only hitch is that my midnight adventures to the dodgy corner shop to stuck up on out-of-date Double Deckers don't seem quite as delicious now that I know such gorgeous handmade truffles can be delivered straight to my door.
Coco Bean also sell boxes of 18 and 24 for those who cannot resist the delicious chilli truffles! And for the plainer tastes there are bars - try the dark mint or the milk with caramel pices scattered all over. . .
