Yuzu and black sesame, a match made in heaven!

Delightful with a cup of black tea in your finest china!

How to Make Black Sesame and Yuzu Chocolate Truffles:

Makes 35-40 Hand Rolled Truffles

Toast the sesame seeds lightly in a pan and set aside
Make the ganache by warming the cream and yuzu flavour burst in the microwave. ⠀⠀
Pour over the Luker Huila chocolate buttons and allow to melt.
Stir to make the ganache and then put in the fridge to set (this may take up to 3 hours)
Once set, take out of the fridge, and with a teaspoon take enough ganache to make the required truffle size.
Roll into a circle and coat the truffles in the Chocolate Splitters and sesame seeds
Place back in the fridge to set further.
