Notes

  • You NEED to use a high quality white chocolate for this recipe.
  • Your hands will need to have powdered sugar on your hands to roll the truffles.
  • With this recipe, the freezer is your friend! If the filling is ever too soft to work with, always put it in the freezer for 5-10 minutes.
  • If your melted (not tempered) chocolate is cooling too much and becoming too thick, you can reheat it in the microwave for 15-30 seconds.
  • Be sure that your lavender is culinary grade.
