Mini hollow balls Dark Ø 21 mm, 63 pieces

To make noble truffles yourself is a wonderful thing, however, not everyone likes to make hollow bodies themselves, the round shells are particularly difficult and sometimes there is simply not enough time. This is not a problem, hollow spheres can also be bought prepared and so everyone has the opportunity to enjoy homemade truffles and give them as a gift.

Praline hollow balls - application

First, decide on a suitable filling. Would you like an alcoholic filling with cherry, a delicious orange ganache or a typical mocha chocolate? Create your own filling and be brave! Try different mixtures and find your favorite truffles!

You can start from a very simple recipe:

Dark chocolate ganache

140 g dark couverture

70 g cream

10 g glucose

5 g Sorbitol

5 g butter

Put the couverture pieces aside in a stainless steel bowl. In a pan you can now boil the remaining ingredients while stirring gently. Pour the hot cream mixture over the couverture. Let it stand for half a minute so that the chocolate can absorb the heat. Then you can stir gently with a whisk until a homogeneous mass is formed. If any chocolate pieces remain, place the bowl on the hotplate and continue stirring. Once everything has melted, allow the ganache to cool a little.

You can add other ingredients to this ganache. 20 g of cherry or a little orange cream give a delicious taste. For a mocha chocolate, it is best to replace 20 g of the cream with espresso. Mix different ingredients and try new combinations!

You can then fill the filling, which has a maximum temperature of 27 degrees, into the hollow spheres using a piping bag. Fill all the chocolates up to 3 mm below the edge. Leave the filled hollow bodies to stand at room temperature for about half an hour. This will form a thin skin over the filling, making it much easier to seal. Using a piping bag, add couverture to all openings. Tap the molds lightly on the table or shake them gently so that the couverture is well distributed and seals the chocolates securely.

Now you can decorate the chocolates right away. Put on a rubber glove. Now take a little tempered chocolate and make sure that your truffles are completely covered. Afterwards you put them for example in Hüppenflocken, chocolate chips or edible paper sprinkles. You can also use a round tampering fork, make a smooth coating and draw fine lines with a white couverture over it after it has dried. You can also create the typical hedgehog spikes, for which a slightly firmer or cooler couverture is suitable. Place the couverture-coated praline on a truffle grid and roll it back and forth with a three- or four-pronged rolling fork until you are satisfied with your truffles.

Beautifully packaged, the noble truffles are also ready to be given away and enjoyed.
