Try placing them in the freezer section. When possible, I always put them in the freezer and take them out just before serving. Some condensation is unavoidable. You can also double dip the truffles with a second coating of chocolate (freeze after each coating to set-up) (two coats will form a more protective layer) so it won't melt. Then drizzle. Thanks for your question.

I have a question. Where can you buy the cream? and how do you use it? Oh. I forgot to ask. What happens if you want fill the inside of the chocolate? Like with caramel or raspberry filling?

@asalas3 You can buy the heavy cream at any grocery store (found in the dairy section usually by the milk) it comes in a carton. Heavy cream can be used for lots of things. If whipped it becomes (whipped cream). Keep on whipping and it will become butter. You need to follow the truffle recipe. You would have to experiment by adding a flavoring to the ganache I personally like the truffles just the way the are with out any additional flavorings added.

Hello, I definitely would send them refrigerated packed with ice packets. Place the truffles in a sealed container and then place the packets of ice around it.

hi..could you let me know how much chocolate and how much cream to make the truffles before dipping

[cakepalate]

@divyaburman Hello, the recipe can be found at my website listed on the video. There is a small fee for the recipe. Trust me you need the recipe (to have it come out correctly). I will be removing the recipe soon, as it is my "secret" recipe and I don't want to leave it up for too long. I've got to start posting other recipes on the site. Thanks for your interest.

i have a question. um after finishing the dipping and drizzling, and setting them in the refrigerator, when i take them out, they tend to form water drops on the out side of the truffles and that kinds of make my truffles soft and the chocolate outside melts. is there a way to make the truffles stay solid or a longer period of time??

Are these safe to send through the mail? I have some friends in another state that I would love to send them some.
