Chaco Pottery Shard Collection 16 Pc truffles

$ 48.00

Inspired by the Indigenous cultures of Chaco Canyon in NW New Mexico, this truffle collection features 4 delicious truffles created from fine flavor cacao and local and wild sourced fruits, berries, nuts and spices. Just 10 years ago, 150 pottery vessels were uncovered in Pueblo Bonito, Chaco's largest ruin. These intact vessels, all designed with beautiful black and white designs, had residue that all tested positive for Theobromine, the main ingredient in Chocolate. Since chocolate doesn't grow in the high, cold winter desert it is assumed that that chocolate was a traded commodity with native peoples of the Yucatan in Mexico. Taste history in these decadent chocolate truffles. A unique, tasty and conversational gift from the Southwest.

Thanks so much for the adorable Pottery Shard Truffle chocolate!

Many thanks for sharing a special part of our cherished New Mexico,

Thank you for the OMG chocolate! I had one, but can’t stop thinking about them upstairs where I hid them.

Those chocolates that you dropped off are AMAZING!!! I politely put them on the table, thinking the box would be opened tomorrow. Then, my coworkers came in and curiosity got the best of us. It was like opening a super special jewel box, “OHH’s” and “Ahhs” and deliciousness abound!

I want to thank whoever was responsible for the delicious little box of Valentine's chocolates called the Chocolate Pottery Shard Truffle. They are delicious! And very dangerous! Thank you so much.
