Description
Chocolates don't come much more festive or indulgent than Godiva's Christmas Chocolate Truffles Box. This limited-edition, 12-piece collection of signature truffles - packed within an elegant and postable box - includes almond praline with caramelised almond pieces, speculoos inspired by the Belgian biscuit, salted caramel, dark chocolate filled with dark chocolate butter cream, and more. 12 truffles in one sitting isn't too much, is it? Nope, we didn't think so. This world-renowned chocolatier was established by Joseph Draps in Brussels almost a century ago. Named in honour of the legendary Lady Godiva, who rode through the streets of Coventry covered only by her flowing locks so that her husband would remit the high taxation he had placed on the locals. All but one of the townsfolk closed their eyes and shutters as her horse carried her naked through the city; that one who sneaked a glimpse gave rise to the term "Peeping Tom". And the chocolates that Godiva produce are well worth looking at. Belgium is the spiritual home of luxury chocolate and Godiva has earned its place in the pantheon of greats.
