Eight of Dilettante’s finest hand-dipped truffles in this beautiful silver gift box. Total net weight – 4 oz.
When Dana first opened his Dilettante café in the Capital Hill District of Seattle, he would stand outside with samples of his hand dipped truffles to spread the word about these exquisite chocolates. One thing his signature silver box line has in common is the faint taste of Ephemere. “Ephemere” is the signature flavor of Dilettante and is derived from Dana’s proprietary cooking method of caramelizing the butter, sugar, and cream early on in the cooking process. This method leaves a hint of unique flavor throughout all of Dilettante’s truffles and cakes and from a technical perspective it extends the shelf life of these hand dipped truffles to 6 months (a typical hand dipped truffle will only last 3 months.) The silver box line is comprised of the original truffles that made Dilettante what it is today!
TRUFFLE ASSORTMENT INCLUDES: Ephemere Dark Chocolate, Ephemere Milk Chocolate, Hazelnut Gianduia, and Cointreau.
Here at Dilettante, third-generation Master Chocolatier Dana Taylor Davenport uses master formulas that are selected from the notebooks of Dana's grandfather, Earl Remington Davenport and his great-uncle, Julius Rudolph Franzen, Master Chocolatier and Pastry Chef to the crowned heads of Europe.
