In the frost-kissed dawn of winter 2019, a culinary marvel was born – an exquisite truffle that swiftly claimed the coveted International Silver at the prestigious Northwest Chocolate Festival just a month after its grand unveiling. Since its release, this stunning truffle has continued to win esteemed accolades and reigns as one of the most popular truffles in our collection!

The Raspberry Fig truffle is an embodiment of elegance and sophistication. Let us invite you on a sensory journey through the layers of our award-winning creation. The first layer entices the palate with the jewel of the Pacific Northwest – a vibrant raspberry preserve, handpicked for its perfect ripeness. It sits majestically atop the heart of our truffle, a sumptuous fusion of rich dark chocolate butter and luscious fig ganache. The harmony of these elements results in a flavor balance that is nothing less than extraordinary, an indulgent experience designed to ignite your senses and transport you to a world of luxury.
