Thank you for your interest in our truffles. They are carefully hand-crafted from the finest ingredients. We use chocolate made from the Criollo cocoa bean from Venezuela, cultivated for over three thousand years. Why? Because experts have agreed on one basic truth for centuries: Venezuelan cocoa is the most flavorful and aromatic in the world, and is the kind you'll find in the most celebrated chocolates.
When you buy Legacy Chocolates truffles and medallions, you are helping small-scale, sustainable farmers in Latin America, so they can continue to plant and preserve this heirloom variety.
Our truffles are made fresh--by hand--so you can savor their fresh, aromatic flavors. We never use preservatives, so please store your truffles in the refrigerator. For fullest flavor and smoothest texture, enjoy them at room temperature. As you eat these morsels, you benefit from the same antioxidants found in green tea and red wine, and mono-unsaturated fats like those found in olive oil.
