Chocolate Truffles

The popularity of Pol Depla's chocolate truffles is certainly no coincidence. Their unique taste, however, is. When an apprentice, replacing an ill chocolatier, accidentally added a chocolate mousse to the wrong mixture half a century ago, the truffle of Depla was born. Nowadays, Depla's chocolate truffles are still prepared according to this accidental recipe containing only the purest ingredients.
But the proof of the truffle is in the eating. Whether you taste the truffle with a dark, milk, or white chocolate coating, you'll probably agree that these are indeed the best truffles to be found in Bruges and far beyond. And that is definitely no coincidence. Right?
