Filled chocolates are confections made from a chocolate shell that encases a flavorful filling. The filling can vary widely, including options like cream, fruit puree, nuts, or liqueurs. These chocolates are often crafted using high-quality chocolate to enhance the overall taste and texture. Typically, filled chocolates are produced through a process called molding, where liquid chocolate is poured into molds, allowed to set, and then filled with the desired mixture before being sealed with more chocolate. Popular varieties include truffles, bonbons, and ganaches, each offering a unique combination of flavors and textures.
