Chocolate Truffle Recipe Tutorial Demonstration: How to Make Soft Ganache and Firm Ganache Truffle

[@will3482]

Hands down the best most detailed video on the topic that I have found, thank you.

[@VIMDODF]

I own a confection business and I'm teaching myself how to make fine chocolates. I have watched quite a few KZbin videos on making chocolates and I have to say, this is the most informative, well presented video I have seen so far! Thank you for all of the wonderful information! :)

[@traceyevans2757]

How is your confection business going?

[@ahthisisgood]

I honestly wish I could attend ANY class you teach. Excellent, clear, detailed explanation / demo. Thank you.

[@kanakapono]

Great Job, as a Culinary School/Pastry Arts Graduate who worked in NYC and Hawai'i as a Pastry Chef, your demo is spot on. I've found tempering Chocolate is the hardest technique to teach my pastry cooks who did not go to culinary school. One of the best investments I've made is to buy a table top version Tempering Machine. A little trick. sea salt or kosher salt to the soft ganache it makes the chocolate flavor pop!! Great job.

[@JordanVineyardWinery]

Thanks for the tip!

[@JordanVineyardWinery]

Josie, you should wait until your truffles are cooled and hardened all the way before refrigerating them. If you refrigerate while they are still somewhat warm they cool too fast and can crack and the filling can leak out...a streaking on the chocolate can also happen. -Cristina

[@patriciamaxinefajardo2612]

This is one of the best ganache-filled chocolate tutorials I've seen so far. Instructions and explanations are very clear, and I agree that it's very informative. Thank you so mich for making this.

[@JordanVineyardWinery]

Thank you!

[@oliviagudgohucruz642]

Chef, this is a phenomenal video! In school I took a class on confections and wanted to brush up on truffles before making some. If I had no prior knowledge, I would still feel confident after watching this video--it's informative and comprehensible. And! You are calm and orderly. It takes away any stress and intimidation! 10/10, fantastic content.

[@tess2626]

This was the best tutorial I have ever seen on making chocolate truffles. Thank you!

[@briandeclan8282]

4 years later, still true.

[@queennefertiti3686]

Yes it is. Plain and sinple... no bs

[@54Mello]

tess2626 The first batch came out awful so decided to look at videos...I just want to say she saved my 2019 Xmas chocolate covered fat bombs! ❤️

[@poornimasingh3235]

Thank you..very well explained..🤝💐👌

[@ThatManManuel]

Agreed

[@fumanchu7]

Excellent video. So many instructional videos skip steps, or don't fully explain what is going on. This was the only video I needed to make proper truffles.

[@dwillmml]

By far the best and most informative tutorial I have seen on the web for making chocolate and ganashe.

[@glamormom]

Extremely detailed and helpful demonstration! One of the best I've ever seen. Thank you!

[@dncviorel]

There are better. Google Paul A. Young. He makes luxury chocolates in UK.

[@BobCCLIV]

This is the best video on the topic I've seen and I've watched quite a few. Thank you.

[@misstimountaincop95b]

Thank you so much for making this video. I had no idea to tap the mold to get all the air out...so its kinda like making macaroons. Truffles are something I always wanted to learn how to make for 2 reasons. 1. They are my husband's favorite candies. 2. My grandmother was an exberts Baker/chololatier bit died when I was 9. I haven't had one since and am looking forward to making memories with my own grandchild...our first....which is due to be born in July. Thanks for not only mentioning all the steps, but WHY each step is so vital to making the treat good. Bravo!

hi made a batch of 3 dark chocolate bars and cream , divided this into thirds , kept one as just plain then added an equal amount of peanut butter to the second third and added caramel to the last third. this makes the chocolate go further and gives you three types of truffle. The dark chocolate I used was the cheapest I could buy just to try things out and the caramel I made from a can of condensed milk . I rolled them into three different shapes. Really pleased with the results . Would recommend anyone to try this

[@bryonyrogers6253]

This is the most incredible and informative video i've ever watched on making ganache in different styles just by using chocolate and cream. I will be using these techniques in a short film i'm making on chocolate, thank you so much for making this!

[@amazingcakes107]

Very elegant presentation, is the best explanation and demonstration of tempering chocolat and making the bonbons.. Congratulations Chef Cristina ! Greetings from Miami. Note: chocolate truffle is a type of chocolate confectionery, traditionally made with a chocolate ganache centre coated in chocolate, cocoa powder or chopped toasted nuts, usually in a spherical, conical, or curved shape.

[@ThatManManuel]

Yeah longer video but very worth it I like how well it is explained and not rushed ... lets me process and get real creative

[@nari21ken]

you are prefect Cristina , I never get bored from rebeting this very informative , benefit , impressive video over and over , this is the best video ever , I bet the chocolate taste is just as perfect as it's look like or even better , keep it on Cristina this is like a truffle bible for me.

[@jgentry7201]

Fantastic video answering so many questions. Thank you.

[@JordanVineyardWinery]

Robert, the recipe says for every amount of alcohol you must subtract equal amount of cream. For example, if the recipe calls for 3 ounces of cream and you want to add 1 ounce of liquor then add 1 ounce of liquor and 2 ounces of cream. You need to add the alcohol after you mix the cream with chocolate. -Cristina

[@kaylaalecsi7562]

Jordan Vineyard & Winery what is cream and where can I get it? Is it like whole milk, 2% milk or is it a whipping cream? Heavy, regular?

[@poshy02]

i tried it and it made me so happy and proud because its amazing and yummy..thank you...

[@lightsaberdude3250]

Thank you jordan for your explanation .Ive watched so many people.,chefs make chocolate they never explained the right way .So i gave up making these .Thank you im back to making chocolate❤

[@MuzakFavo]

I love that you explain your recipe. Now that I understand all the answers to my "why"s, I can experiment more freely! Thank you! Have you made, or will make, a cherry cordial chocolate video. "Mon Cheri" chocolates are my absolute favorites, but we can't buy them in my country, so I would like to make them myself with my newfound confidence, thanks to the above video!!!

[@robg6616]

Absolutely Helpful and easy to follow. It was great very professional. Thank you

[@jamestricker3741]

This is a bloody good tutorial, thank you

[@marcelog.2916]

After making the shells, while filling them, your tempered choc may get bellow the right temp. In case i need to make it hot again(bain marie) do I need to temper it again or they are goig to go without tempering? Great video, congrats!

[@namewithoutdigits]

Thanks for sharing! I like the design of the bowls used for garnishing pieces. Do you know the brand of these dishes? Cheers.

[@karenconine963]

What a great tutorial. I now feel confident I can make some homemade ones. I make my own homemade soaps, this reminds me of make them! Thanks

[@mammonpan02]

[@LeJenny23]

This has got to be the most detailed video I have ever watched. Thank you! I have a question. Is heavy whipping cream or heavy cream the same as cream? Can I use it as a substitute for the cream?

[@ShowYouOnceAgain]

Best video with the correct steps. ❤

[@karinraava9967]

Jordan Vineyard & Winery is it heavy cream?

[@debbiecarolla7511]

The best video I have seen and very informative

[@houseofpainbbq9323]

i would like to first say great video, you make this look so ezy. I have spent the first half of life building restaurant all over the country. Now I am trying something new, how ever I think I will stick with th bbq. Please make more vidos, trying this was great fun.

[@JordanVineyardWinery]

Thank you.

[@wvman2374]

Fantastic video! Thank you so much for that demonstration

[@journeyon1983]

I have to say this is the best tutorial I've seen yet. I have a question. I want to make the ganache part of the truffle using Maker's Mark Bourbon. My question is how much bourbon should I add to the cream or is it whatever I want to make it more bourbony tasting? Should I add it when the cream is boiling or after when when mixing in the chocolate? I want to learn because we've been buying Maker's Mark truffles for a while and it's rather costly and I'm looking into making my own. Thanks.

[@lizmiller2341]

For the thicker truffles what size tray did you use? A normal cookie sheet size?

[@michellefrantz2830]

Your my new favorite!! So helpful and knowledgeable, thank you!!!!

[@JordanVineyardWinery]

You're welcome!

[@tomsilva2365]

Hello chef, how do you keep the dipping chocolate from getting hard? Is it because of the tempering method, or do you reheat with the double boiler?

[@ranchordas1]

Hi! Thank you for the video. How do I make the firm ganache? I didn't quite get that.

[@TheChupivore]

Hello! Thanks for this great vid. For the ganache, can I replace part of the cream with say passion fruit pulp? If yes, what would be the ratio? like replace half the cream with the same amount of fruit?

[@Islandgirl4ever2]

Beautiful and great demonstration! Thankssss!

[@saffrontheshowydachshund2233]

[@BevyE64]

Awesome job

[@verenarivera0412]

thanks!! you are an amazing teacher!

[@crazylocodude]

Great video. I have the same molds your using but I seem to have a problem when I am putting tempered chocolate in the mold to let it set for the shell I wait a few minutes and the shell doesn't form well. Then I put it in the fridge for a minute and it makes a thick shell. Too thick. Any recommendations? I am tempering my chocolate with a mini rev machine. Thanks

[@Hanan-jx4bz]

If I want to add fruit purée or cheese to the firm ganache should I stay on the same recipe or make alterations ?

[@mickjac8447]

Great explanation. But, how do you tell if your chocolate is not tempered ?

[@dztb2773]

great tutorial!

[@BradyFries]

Is there a way to make them completely round so they basically roll on the table like a packaged Truffle from Lindour? I have a competition and I needed some advise, this video is really informative! Great video!

Can you substitute the milk chocolate and dark chocolate for white chocolate to make white chocolate truffles

how about when using a fruit puree? Do you have to worry about mold if you seal it completely?
