Recipe by: Stanton Ho

Yield: 100-120 Milk Truffle Shells

Ingredients

8 oz                  Heavy Cream

1 lb 4 oz           Luker Noche 40% Milk Chocolate

3.5 oz               Unsalted Butter

2 oz                  Trimoline

1.5 oz               Mandarin Flavor Paste

.5 oz                 Black Forest Cherry Brandy (Kirswasser) Flavor Paste

.5 oz                 Creme Napoleon Flavor Paste

                         Milk Truffle Shells

Instructions

1.) Boil the heavy cream in a sauce pot. Slowly pour it into the chopped milk chocolate and allow it to melt for at least 3 minutes. From the center out, stir continuously to keep the mixture emulsified. Blend well with an immersion blender, then set it aside to cool.

2.) Once cooled, incorporate the soft butter into this mixture. Once this is completed, slowly blend in the Dreidoppel Flavor Pastes.

3.) Pipe the ganache into milk chocolate truffle shells. Crystalize before closing the truffle shell openings with milk chocolate. Enrobe into tempered milk chocolate. Finish by rolling it into a blended 50/50 confectionery sugar and donut sugar or pipe on flowers for decoration.
