    The wonderful flavours of the Scottish dessert are captured in this truffle:

    Raspberry;

    Heavy cream; and

    Mango Truffle

    $5.75 Add to cart

    Tangy mango with a touch of yuzu juice and my version of white chocolate, Vanilla Simply White, create a luscious smooth ganache.

    The tanginess is enhanced by the citrus notes in the third-generation Colombian Orinoco Region heirloom cacao – Arauquita, that I used to make the MonKKey DarKeto chocolate shells.

    Drizzles of more Simply White decorate the shells.

    Add this to you choice of bonbons to fill a gold box as a gift, especially for Galentine’s Day (13 Feb) and Valentine’s Day (14 Feb).

    Scattered with organic rose petals, these heart shaped bonbons are perfect for you and your sweetie.

    MonKKey Arauquita DarKeto has citrus, honey and nutty flavour notes. The rose petals are a perfect flavour compliment.

    Arauquita is a third generation Colombian Orinoco Region heirloom cacao.

    Flavours of Broadway – Museo Kenya Espresso Bonbons

    Museo Craft Coffee Roasters on Broadway Ave is a small-batch roaster and coffee bar, owner operated since 2007.

    Sometimes I will use Museo’s Kenya Espresso. Kenya coffee has notes of lemony citrus which suits Colombian cacao flavours.

    And other times, the flavour of Museo’s ever-evolving MK6 espresso suits my mood. Expect “caramelly sweet with orange-like brightness, cocoa –mid notes and warming-spice low notes.”

    Those delicious coffee flavours create a beautiful ganache made with intense MonKKey Colombian DarKeto:  nestled in a crisp shell of TOTALLY! Colombian MilKeto.

    Savour the flavours as a true connoisseur: take a small bite. What complex chocolate and coffee favours do you detect?

    Flavours of Broadway – Bulk Cheese Warehouse Smoked Cheddar & Apple Brandy Truffles

    Opened in 1987 by Scott Bartlett, the Bulk Cheese Warehouse has been a staple of the Broadway area for over three decades. Meat and cheese are smoked in-house.

    In this, the 2024 version, I used their four year old smoked cheddar cheese for our collaboration to bring savoury and sweet together in this tasty truffle.

    The smoky cheese was paired with Pemberton Distillery’s Organic Apple Brandy and MonKKey Arauquita Very Dark MilKeto. The resulting savoury truffle was finished by rolling in toasted pecans.

    Perfect for after dinner.

    Canadian rye whisky, with the tastes of oak, toasted grains and rich toffee, pairs magically with the tropical fruit and herbal notes of Colombian ChigorodĂł cocoa in TOTALLY! MilKeto.

    The complexity of flavours is enhanced by rolling the truffle in two kinds of chocolate shavings: MonKKey DarKeto and MonKKey Simply Milk.

    Perfect with your favourite beverage.

    MilKeto chocolate and coffee are united in this truffle. The chocolate is Colombian Arauca MonKKey MilKeto: in-the-style of milk chocolate.

    In-house made keto coffee liqueur enhances the 100% Arabica coffee.

    The truffle is rolled in whole ChigorodĂł cocoa powder to enhance the rich chocolate flavour note. (Whole cocoa powder has both the cocoa and cocoa butter unlike regular cocoa powder which does not have any cocoa butter.)

    Could this truffle be that morning treat…?

    Ginger Truffle

    So simple – the zing of fresh organic ginger on your tongue in harmony with the smooth Colombian Ariari MonKKey MilKeto ganache contrasts beautifully with the dusting of deep rich flavour of natural Venezuelan cocoa mixes with more ground ginger. Plus in-house candies ginger for a bit of crunch and more zing.

    Savour the flavours as a true connoisseur: bite a half of the truffle. Close your eyes. Let your tongue explore the flavors and textures. Which flavours are your favourites?

    Waffolate Bonbons

    The Waffolate: a chocolate waffle pays homage to the keto world’s chaffle, the cheese waffle.

    Waffolates come in five varieties:

    • TOTALLY! 100% – unadulterated chocolate flavour.
    • TOTALLY! MilKeto – whole milk adds creaminess and softens the 100% chocolate flavour.
    • MonKKey DarKeto – subtly sweetened with the sugar alcohol, erythritol, and a touch of monk fruit juice concentrate.
    • MonKKey MilKeto – sweetened, as DarKeto but made creamy with whole milk.
    • Cocoa Butter (in the style of white chocolate) – cocoa butter, whole milk and erythritol.

    The featured Waffolate is made with Ariari cocoa mass from Colombia. Ariari’s flavour profile is defined by cacaitoscanada.ca as “tropical fruits combined with molasses flavor”. Can you taste those flavours?

    This is the first time that I have used Ariari: I hope it will become another keto fine chocolate favourite.

    Bars are available in all varieties except TOTALLY! 100% which is by special order.

    Hazelnuts and almond praline with MonKKey Vanilla Simply White (in the style of white chocolate), form the creamy ganache centre.

    The sweetness of the filling and the candied hazelnuts and almonds on top are balanced with the TOTALLY! MilKeto which enrobes the ganache. TOTALLY! MilKeto is Colombian cacao sweetened naturally with whole milk.

    A light drizzle of more MonKKey Vanilla Simply White reminds us of the chocolate inside.

    In my childhood garden there were black, yellow and red currant bushes. While I would pick and eat the yellow and red currants fresh, I waited for blackcurrant jam: dark purple, rich, and tart.

    These lovely burgundy truffles are reminiscent of that delicious home-made jam.

    Blackcurrant puree was blended with my Colombian MonKKey MilKeto and a touch of orange from Cointreau, and then rolled in toasted pecans.

    Makes a great gift for a chocolate connoisseur.

    Satisfy your curiosity about:

    1. the different flavour profiles of South American chocolate;

    3. the best way to enjoy a Waffolate.

    All in MilKeto – my keto version of milk chocolate.

    The selection of Waffolates will vary with the current Chocolate in the Bowl.

    What is a Waffolate? It is my chocolate homage to the keto world’s chaffle – a cheese waffle.
