What these truffle shells are and who they are for

Valrhona dark chocolate truffle shells are pre-moulded hollow spheres, 504 to a 1.3 kg case, that let a chocolatier, pastry kitchen or caterer fill, cap and finish bonbons without tempering and moulding shells in-house. They are built for shops that need consistent weight and a clean seam on every piece, and for small producers who want Valrhona-quality bonbons without a moulding line.

How to use them

Pipe a cooled ganache, praline, caramel or fruit filling into each shell, leave a little headroom, let the filling set, then seal the opening with tempered chocolate and either roll the finished truffle in cocoa powder or dip it in couverture. Keep the shells sealed in a cool, dry place away from strong odors; chocolate shells do not need refrigeration.

Pairs well with

Most kitchens fill and cap these with a matching Valrhona couverture such as Guanaja 70% feves or Caraïbe 66% feves. See the full Valrhona collection, our truffle shells and components, and all dark couverture chocolate.

Ships nationwide from our JN Kidds Distributors warehouse in Brockton, MA; free local delivery on qualifying orders across Eastern Massachusetts and New England. See all warehouse items.
