My boyf. got me one of these on Valentines:
http://www.montezumas.co.uk/search/s...g=&i=1431&pg=1
Ingredients: Coating (dark shavings & freeze dried cherry), Shell (dark chocolate), Ganache (dark chocolate, fondant, coconut oil, champagne, champagne concentrate, wheat syrup, soya lecithin). Dark Chocolate (cocoa solids 60%) Non Organic.
VERY nice. Not overly sweet like some of their other truffles. Lasted all of about 5 seconds, with the rest of the Montezumas stuff I got!
wooooooah - £3.95?!
How come it took you so long to eat? :D Sounds like a fine present, I had some regular-sized Montezuma truffles that went down nicely a while back.
Haha, yeah I did feel like a total glutton gnawing on it!
I suppose 4 quid is pretty dear. Another quid and that's a box of Booja Booja truffles!
Sound lovely!
...I would never name a food company Montezuma.
^ i'm guessing you're referring to 'Montezuma's Revenge'?
Yes, I must admit Montezuma's Revenge was my first thought on coming across Montezuma's, but if you eat enough of the chocolate it seems to break the association :D
Bryzee, it is expensive but Valentine's day comes but once a year after all!
Just be careful you don't eat TOOOOOOO much :DQuote:

They found vegan champagne? Which? Where??
Yeah. But I'm glad I looked at this thread. It reminded me to try and buy valentine's candy that's been put on clearance! *to the internet!*Quote:

i don't know what champagne they use but they've been selling vegan champagne truffles for ages - as do Booja Booja don't they?Quote:

Wow! I've just seen this. Emailed my o/h to ask him to get me one (there's a Montezumas near his work).
*wonders who to email to get giant truffle*
just how 'giant' are we talking here anyway?
For £4 I can't imagine it's much bigger than a triple normal sized one. (My o/h says he'll get me one!)
You make it sound like vegan champagne doesn't exist, try here :DQuote:

Well my o/h went into the London branch near his workplace yesterday but didn't buy me one because the stooopid bloke behind the counter convinced him that it wasn't vegan.:mad:
^ do you know what he said to him? :confused:
Well he showed him the milk and the plain valentine truffles and when asked he told him neither were vegan.
eta And apparently it is the shop assistant my o/h always sees in there so it's not like he was a part time weekend person - should know better.
maybe he was just trying to be on the safe side if he wasn't sure, but it sounds like he should know the facts about their chocolates! i find the staff in the Brighton branch rarely know about the 10% Viva! discount they're supposed to give to members.
They have these Sweet Symphony champagne truffles for sale (in Brighton branch anyway) for £1.99 now.
