Bakery Dessert Truffles Part Two

Strawberry Tarte: I've never tried tarte previous to this occasion, and technically I still haven't tried it. But I want to now that I've tasted this truffle! It has a double center, one side is a "vanilla mousse" while the other tastes like the frozen strawberries you use in Strawberry Shortcakes, however it was a tart, not a ganache center, so it was more solid and didn't drip constantly when eaten. I can't say whether it tastes like the actualy Strawberry Tarte or not, but it had a deliciously original flavor. I loved it. The only downside was that it wasn't really a chocolate mix. I don't even think the strawberry tarte has any chocolate, so the combination wasn't the best. But it was certainly very delicious. Also, the tarte is a little overpowering, but witha  flavor so rich, how can it not be? 9/10. Worth trying!

The outside, before eaten. Chocolate criss cross patterns!

The inside! The vanilla mousse rests atop the tarte(:

YUM! Almost gone!!

Red Velvet Cake: They're almost gone! Now I've just tried the Red Velvet Cake truffle, and I think I'm a little upset I saved this one for last. It wasn't a particularly original or exciting flavor. It tasted like other truffles I've had, while all the others in this collection have been particularly new and original, this one just barely met my expectations. It wasn't bad. It was tasty and a pleaser, for sure. But was it particularly special? Not exactly. 6/10


The interior and the exterior- yummy cake inside and the white chocolate outside!

Interior!

Tiramisu: LAST ONE! I've never tried tiramisu, but I think it has layers of chocolately flavor. And this definitely was the right choice to save for last! It had a blend of coffee flavor! If tiramisu tastes like this truffle, I really want to try it. And if this truffle tastes like tiramisu, then many people will be pleased. It had a blend of "mascarpone and espresso ganache," and is topped with chocolate bits on its white chocolate shell. The perfect mix with the espresso flavor so that it's not too overpowering. I highly recommend this chocolate, I found nothing wrong with it. 10/10!

Interior without flash, the top is the espresso ganache, the bottom is the mascarpone center! Yum!


Same here, but with flash.

Bakery Dessert Truffles Part One

Molten Lava Cake (Chocolate Lava Cake): Yummy! Already reviewed as chocolate of the month! This one didn't taste as fresh and didn't have as much of an exploding taste as the one I had in the store. But it was still pretty good! It had the same exploding chocolate taste and it's still an 8/10.
Molten Lava Cake/Chocolate Lava Cake truffle! You can really tell it has a cakey substance!


Cheesecake: This one had one half of its interior a cheesecakey flavor, and the other half having a cheesecake crust flavor. It tasted just like the classic cheesecake that everyone knows and loves! Wrapped in a milk chocolate shell and topped with chopped pecans, this truffle was delicious, subtle, and it met almost all of my expectations. I expected a bit more of a cheesecake flavor that was more cheesy. I ate this one along with the carrot cake and they both are topped with nuts, so I got them confused, and I couldn't tell that this one was the cheesecake and the other one was carrot cake untill I reached the crust taste. 8.5/10!

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That's right. The white is the cheesecakee and the crustt is the brown part!!

Carrot Cake: I couldn't really distinguish this flavor between the Cheesecake flavor because, as you may have read, I got them confused at first. It's flavor wasn't particularly original. I'm not big on carrot cake, I haven't tasted it as recently as I've had cheesecake, but it tasted very similar to the carrot cake I can remember! 7/10 (Sorry for the lack of a visual display!)
