chocolate truffles (#583)

(an instance of Generic Edible Object made by Avon)

     Light and dark, these rich domes of chocolate promise a variety of opulent flavors.
You inhale a dark, mysterious mingling of chocolates with a hint of liqueur.
You sink your teeth into the chocolate, feel its small, satisfying crack, and its taste, sweet, followed by bitter, followed by sweet, melts on your tongue.
The chocolate is cool and smooth.
You pick out a truffle and bite into it, wondering what you'll find inside.

    ...You bite into bittersweet chocolate and find its heart is a dark, tart-sweet morello cherry preserved whole in brandy.

    ...The white chocolate dome you have chosen holds a dark center. Your teeth sink in smooth as butter.

    ...You slowly suck at a dark chocolate shell until you reach its creamy white chocolate middle, flavored with framboise.

    ...A lightning zigzag of dark chocolate decorates a milk chocolate dome. You take a bite and feel the pleasant jolt of cappucino.

    ...Powdered praline dusts the milk chocolate truffle you lift to your mouth. Inside, chopped pecans add texture to the soft milk chocolate.

    ...In small nibbles you eat a Grand Marnier truffle.

    ...You close your eyes and bite. The melting warmth of dark bittersweet is cooled with Creme de Menthe.

    ...You lick at a dark chocolate shell dipped in white. Then you take the plunge...kahlua.

    ...Your teeth crack the outer shell of the truffle you've picked. The taste of chocolate mingles with the heady scent of rum.

    ...Tart and bright, lemon cuts the sweetness of the truffle you choose.

    ...You lift, not a truffle, but a whole huge, perfect, juicy ripe strawberry dipped in dark chocolate. You dangle it by its green stem and bite.

    ...You bite into bitter chocolate and discover moist coconut mingled with the sweetness of white chocolate.
