Comments about Ah! Some Truffle Collection - 15 Pc:

While I thoroughly enjoyed these truffles, as well as another set that I had received from AH! Some Chocolate in the summer, I would offer that the flavors are not as strong in some of the truffles as I would have expected. They are excellent as truffles by themselves, but if one is looking for a definite kick or difference between flavors, most of these are mild (except for the raspberry and the nut), and the chocolate overwhelms any subtle flavors.

The truffles ARE delicate. In the last box I received, the coating had been shattered on some of the truffles. One of the truffles has a coarse sugar coating which is very interesting, but the truffle seems to "sweat" and look damp. It is still delicious. However as a presentation, I would want to check them before giving, as they might look the worse for wear. This is merely cosmetic, and the truffles were still delicious.

The lady I spoke to from Ah! Some Chocolate last time I got some truffles was kind, personable, pleasant, and helpful. I would buy these again just to support a company with such good customer service and eagerness to please. I would also buy them as the truffles are very creamy and indulgent, just not terribly different in flavor. It might be better if the truffles were not marketed as being so individually flavored--I would have been 100% happy with the truffles themselves if I had not been expecting to definitely taste the exotic.

The only other complaint, and this is mild, is it would be nice to have an explanation with the box as to which truffle is which.
