What is "truffle"?

Truffles are a type of candy that is made from a mixture of chocolate, cream, and butter. The candy is typically formed into small, bite-sized balls and then coated in cocoa powder or other toppings, such as chopped nuts or sprinkles. Truffles come in a variety of flavors, such as milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and white chocolate, and may also be flavored with additional ingredients, such as fruit extracts or liqueurs.

Truffles can be made at home or purchased from specialty chocolate shops and are a popular treat for people of all ages.
