Birnn Wholesale Chocolate Truffles of Vermont

Birnn Chocolates of Vermont manufactures fine chocolate truffles for retailers nationwide. Choose from a variety of over 100 truffles made with fresh, Vermont heavy cream. Orders for bulk, wholesale truffles typically ship the day they are placed - year round.

According to them, here is how they define the origins of a truffle:

Many people are aware of an edible subterranean fungus called a truffle that was harvested with the help of pigs. To the epicure, it is considered a delicacy. Tuber and Tuber Magnatum, the black truffle, is found in Pernigord, France. Truffles are round, about 1 to 2 inches in diameter, pungent, have a wrinkled surface and grow in symbiotic relationship with the roots of large trees in calcareous soil. They are harvested from the beginning of December to late January. Today, dogs are used to locate truffles because they are less likely to eat their find.

The Truffle became popular late in the 15th century and is often used as a flavor for sauces and as a garnish. Due to their scarcity, truffles remain extremely expensive.

How do we get from fungus to chocolate?

A European confectioner mixed chocolate and heavy cream together to form ganache - a thick, creamy mass that was the center of a truffle. The ganache or center was then shaped into small spheres, dipped in chocolate and then rolled in cocoa powder or on a wire rack. These chocolates looked much like the fungus. Because of their similar appearance, rarity, and the status they share as delicacies, these confections became known as truffles.
