21 White Chocolate Truffle Recipes You can Make At Home

A lot of so-called chocolate lovers say white chocolate is not real chocolate. Well to that I say, “what did white chocolate ever do to you?”

If you’re a bonafide lover of white chocolate like me, I’m sure you’ll agree that white chocolate deserves much more respect and recognition than what it’s currently getting.

You may ask, why is it a much better alternative? Because while regular chocolate tastes glorious, it has a distinct taste that can clash or overpower most ingredients. White chocolate on the other hand, has this unexplainable ability to blend well with other ingredients. You can still taste the white chocolate, but it doesn’t overpower any other ingredients you put in with it.

This makes white chocolate the perfect ingredient to desserts like the ever popular chocolate truffle. Even the weirdest white chocolate truffle recipes with out of this world ingredient combinations work well with white chocolate as its mediator. If you plan on making truffles and you’re tired of the traditional flavors, white chocolate will make your chances of success higher.

Proof of this is our list of 21 white chocolate truffles recipes that you can absolutely get lost in. These recipes are easy to make and don’t use your run-of-the-mill truffle ingredients.
