Hi Bold Bakers! Salted Caramel Chocolate Truffles always impress people — there’s something that seems too fancy about homemade truffles, right? The secret is, that these homemade salted caramel chocolate truffles are so easy to make, and you only need four ingredients! Already have an account? These truffles are smooth and super delicious. I love the flavor combination of salt and caramel, but this truffle really lets the chocolate shine, with just a hint of caramel. I like to use my Signature Salted Caramel Sauce, but feel free to use store-bought as well. My truffles are great for Valentine’s Day! Serve them as dessert after a romantic meal, alongside champagne, or bag a few up in a cute bag and give them as gifts!
What Are Salted Caramel Chocolate Truffles?
Truffles are a popular gift around Valentine’s Day. Likely, they’re what you’d eat first out of a heart-shaped box of candies! These homemade salted caramel chocolate truffles are just as delicious as any gourmet truffles you can find in the store — and a lot cheaper to make than to buy! The chocolate and caramel ganache is chilled until it is set, rounded, coated in melted chocolate, and then rolled in cocoa powder. They’re super indulgent and chocolatey and a great treat to make in advance!

Gemma’s Pro Chef Tips For Making Salted Caramel Chocolate Truffles
Not a fan of bittersweet chocolate? Use a sweeter, milk chocolate — something around 60% cocoa solids. Use my signature Salted Caramel Sauce! You don’t need to use heavy whipping cream for this recipe, any type of fresh cream will do. You can make the ganache up to 3 days in advance so you can have them ready to go as gifts! Want a simple way to finish your truffles? Roll the truffle in toasted, finely chopped hazelnuts. Do you like a little texture in your truffle? Add toasted chopped nuts or ground praline to your ganache!
How Do I Store Salted Caramel Chocolate Truffles?
You can store salted caramel chocolate truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve, but be sure to allow them to sit at room temperature for a bit for the best flavor!
