How Do You Store Truffles

Truffles will keep airtight in the refrigerator for up to 1 month, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. They will last in the refrigerator wrapped tightly for 3 weeks.

How To Dip Truffles in Chocolate

There are a few ways to dip the truffles in chocolate. You can use a spoon, a fork or even dipping tools. Gently submerge the item you’re dipping in the chocolate; then reach back underneath it and remove it.

What Is The Best Way To Melt Chocolate For Dipping

The easiest way to melt chocolate is in the microwave. To do so, place your chocolate in a microwavable dish, then microwave it on medium heat in 30-second bursts. After every 30 second interval, stir your chocolate to prevent it from burning. I also recommend this Wiltons Chocolate Melter.

Should You Add Shortening To Melted Chocolate

The ratio between shortening and chocolate is very straightforward. You simply add 1/2 teaspoon of shortening to each ounce of chocolate, melting the combination and stirring until it is smooth.
