About Our Truffles

What are the “hearts” of chocolate truffles?

The “heart” of a chocolate truffle is a term coined by Neo Cocoa founder, owner and pastry chef Christine Doerr, which describes the uniqueness of her truffles. Neo Cocoa’s truffles are like none other you’ll find on the market today. She’s added flavor twists on traditional French or European-style truffles and created a confection much more delicate than its hard-shelled American-style counterpart. Christine’s truffles are shell-less. They are truly the heart of a truffle—rich, creamy chocolate delicately dusted with cocoa powder. Her unique blend of natural yet decadent ingredients is what makes Neo Cocoa’s hand-made chocolate truffles so creamy, unique, and irresistible.

Each artisan truffle flavor is created from the best local and organic ingredients: Guittard chocolate, local organic Straus Family Creamery cream and Sweet Earth Fair-Trade, organic dutch-processed cocoa powder. You can view and purchase our truffles on our shop page.
