We love Bonbons, with the delightful flavors created with our own bean to bar chocolate. These small, enticing treats have a way of capturing our attention with their delicate appearances and rich flavors. With a hard outer shell that yields to a burst of delectable goodness within, bonbons provide a delightful surprise with every taste.
Whether it's the tangy burst of fruit, the creamy satisfaction of caramel, strong coffee flavor or the satisfying crunch of a nut, bonbons offer a symphony of flavors to please the palate. Whether enjoyed as a personal indulgence or shared as a gift, these never fail to bring joy and a moment of blissful indulgence as a celebration or fixing a less than stellar day.
Bonbons are generally small, sweet chocolates with a variety of fillings, while truffles specifically refer to chocolate confections made with a ganache center and coated in cocoa powder or other toppings.
