(per truffle)
60g (2oz) Bioglan
Superfoods Cacao
110g (4oz) coconut oil, melted
5 tbsp maple syrup
30ml (1fl oz) cold water
TO DECORATE
40g (1½oz) pistachio nuts
40g (1½oz) freeze-dried
strawberries
20g (¾oz) desiccated coconut
1 tsp turmeric
1 In a medium bowl, whisk the coconut oil, cacao powder and maple syrup. Whisk in the cold water a teaspoon at a time until it become a smooth, thick ganache. Place the bowl in the fridge to set for at least an hour or, if you’re in a hurry, place in the freezer for 20 minutes.
2 To make the coatings, place the coconut and turmeric into a pestle and mortar and grind together until combined. For the other toppings, bash the freeze-dried strawberries and the pistachio nuts in the pestle and mortar until finely ground.
3 Once the ganache has set, roll about 1 tsp of the mixture into a ball, then dip it into the bowl of toppings – this bit is very messy! Move it around and press the coating onto the truffle until it’s fully covered.
4 Place onto a baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper, then let them set in the fridge for about 30 minutes to firm up before eating.
