Hotel Chocolat sent me some 40% milk chocolate drops and some white chocolate drops to play with. Knowing how much my older sister loves Hotel Chocolat chocolate I thought I would make some chocolate truffles to sit on my Winter Woodland dessert table. I started off with rich milk chocolate ones, then went onto mixing other flavours in them like the delicious Baileys ones and seasonal toffee apple ones and covering them in shimmering shades.

Then it was time to turn my attention to the white chocolate drops! I again started off with simply indulgent plain white chocolate ones, then tried lemon meringue, and lastly here are some candy floss flavoured ones. I had picked up a bottle of candy floss flavouring on a trip to Paris and had been itching to try it out. I love the subtle flavour they give them.
