Why trust us?

No one will ever realise that these fudgy vegan chocolate truffles are made with silken tofu and vegan protein powder. The tofu acts like double cream in the recipe, thickening the melted chocolate into a ganache which can be chilled until firm then rolled into balls. The classic coating of unsweetened cocoa powder is hard to beat but you can get creative with your favourite coatings – chopped nuts like pistachios or toasted almonds, chia seeds, sesame seeds and cacao nibs are all worth a try.
