Vegan Dark Chocolate Strawberry Cream Truffles

February 5, 2013 by Cara

I’m on strike!

Vegan Strawberry Cream Truffles - Fork & Beans

I have the touch of death in the kitchen when it comes to baking as of late. I’m failing royally at everything I have a go at. It’s the endless cycle of baking gluten, egg, and dairy-free. You can never think you have arrived because there is always something new to learn, something to tweak and revise, and something to turn into a disaster.

Vegan Strawberry Cream Truffles - Fork & Beans

I need a break from sorghum flour, chia seed slurry, and xanthan gum. So old trusty candy-making comes to the rescue! Just in time for Valentine’s day, too.

    These look amazing, however, I don’t like agave. Could I use grade B Maple Syrup instead?

    Dark chocolate and strawberries were meant for each other. These look like a winner and perfect for Valentines Day (or any day for that matter).

    These look delicious to say the least, I’d have them eaten up before I could take the pics though…..I just want to know how’d you get them into those beautiful white paper cups without smudging cocoa powder every where? You are amazing πŸ˜‰

    This looks so delicious! Sadly my youngest daughter has severe nut allergies…including cashews. Do you think this would work with sunflower seeds?
