    Delicate pale green and white with the barest touch of heat.

    Sweet ganache made with MonKKey Simply White and fresh organic lime juice has a bright citrus flavour that is further enhanced with lemongrass, ginger, and lime zest.

    Crunchy large erythritol crystals with more lime zest top the bonbon.

    Lightly dusted on top is a hot eight-pepper blend by OurFarmYXE.

    Rhubarb means spring to me. Spring is coming and with it new shoots of rhubarb.

    The rhubarb puree in this bonbon was made for those days when rhubarb is not growing in our gardens. Extra flavour notes were added with star anise and fresh organic lemon zest.

    The fruit and butter ganache was created with two kinds of my MonKKey Chigorodó: Cheesecake MilKeto (think milk chocolate made with cream cheese – so keto) and DarKeto. The flavour profile was completed with Saskatoon’s Lucky Bastard’s Premium Rum.

    Blackcurrant Truffles

    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 homemade jam.

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

    (Activated nuts are more easily digested. They were soaked in water to reduce the phytic acid. Then dried at a very low temperature to crisp the nuts and keep them raw and full of enzymes.)

    My husband loved to end a multi-course dinner with port and stilton cheese so I named these truffles after him.

    Taylor Fladgate’s 10-year-old Tawny Port with its sweet elegant apricot flavours and delicate wood notes and the Clawson Blue Stilton with its distinctive tangy flavour blend together in perfect harmony with MonKKey Arauca MilKeto. The resulting creamy ganache is rolled in Chigorodó whole cocoa.

    Unsure about being adventuresome enough to try flavours outside your comfort zone? Come to the shop and I will give you a taste of the ganache. You won’t believe the extraordinary flavours.

    Taylor Fladgate’s 10-year-old Tawny Port with its sweet elegant apricot flavours and delicate wood notes and the Clawson Blue Stilton with its distinctive tangy flavour blend together in perfect harmony. The creamy ganache fills a crisp TOTALLY! 100% Venezuelan chocolate cup.

    Lovely to see dusted with gold and Chigorodó whole cocoa.

    Amazing to enjoy.

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

    The complexity of flavours is enhanced by rolling the truffle in three kinds of chocolate shavings: MonKKey DarKeto and MonKKey Cheesecake (both Chigorodó) and MonKKey Simply Milk.

    Perfect with your favourite beverage.

    Raspberry Wasabi Bonbons

    Raspberries are presented in two different ways in this tangy bonbon.

    The bright red raspberry layer is called pâte de fruits: all fruit with a touch of erythritol.

    The ganache layer has raspberry purée as well as raspberry liqueur for more of that delicious fruit flavour. Purées and fruit liqueurs are made in-house.
    I used MonKKey Chigorodo Cheesecake – think of sweet milk chocolate cheesecake. This Colombian chocolate pairs beautifully with raspberry tanginess.

    What about the wasabi? Not spicy at all. It adds an extra layer of flavour that is hard to describe.

    Finished with a light dusting of wasabi powder.

    Passion. For life, people and chocolate.

    Tangy, juicy, mouth-watering yellow passion fruit is perfectly balanced with creamy naturally sweet coconut butter. MonKKey Chigorodo Cheesecake MilKeto adds a touch of salty cheesecake.

    The ganache pieces are hand-dipped in MonKKey Venezuelan MilKeto and dusted with natural cocoa powder.

    A sweet berry and a tangy berry blended together into a smooth puree by a Canadian company and combined with smooth white MonKKey Cocoa Butter Creamcheese and a bit of TOTALLY! 100% Venezuelan Dark chocolate and a splash of organic apple brandy create a luscious ganache.

    Squares of the ganache are hand-dipped into MonKKey Venezuelan DarKeto.

    Finished with a dusting of blueberry and cranberry for zings of flavour and colour.

    Hazelnuts and almonds praline with TOTALLY! Arauca MilKeto forms the creamy butter ganache.

    The triangle base is dipped into MonKKey Arauca MilKeto then sat onto shavings of MonKKey Venezuelan DarKeto to balance the sweetness.

    A drizzle of the MonKKey Arauca MilKeto completes the truffle for your enjoyment.

    Plus three kinds of chocolate.

    Poured into a shell of MonKKey Arauca MilKeto.

    Dipped into TOTALLY! Venezuelan MilKeto – a deeper, more intense flavour.

    Finally, topped with crunchy candied ground hazelnuts and almonds.
