My recent weekend trip to San Francisco was great. I was there to watch a friend do her marathon and also a little getaway for myself! My coworker once brought back truffels from XOX Truffel store in SF and it was to die for. I remembered exactly how it tasted, soft, melts in your mouth and in so many flavors! The best thing is it's not overwhelmingly sweet like other truffles I've tried. When I was there this past weekend, I made an extra effort to stop by the store to pack up! The little store front with about two tables inside and two outside was just darling. It's ran by a French family and all the truffels are of course, made from scratch by him. They have the most interesting flavors, I think there were about 15 different flavors. I tasted quite a bit of it. Each individual truffle costs 75 cents and if you were to buy a box of 20, it would cost $8. Pretty affordable. I bought the soy/vegan/hazelnut truffles, which was just heavenly! It's chocolate thats healthy! Can you beat that? I also bought the earl grey truffles. I also like the champagne, raspberry, soy/dark chocolate, and many more. If you're ever in town you have to stop by and get some truffles! They also have a website, and you can order online too at www.xoxtruffles.com. Great for gifts during the holiday season!
