Truffle

Truffles are small chocolate balls, closely related to sugar cubes and fruit drops. While the sugar cubes are the hard-working miners of the chocolate caves and the fruit drops are the refiners and decorators, the truffles are born bakers. They transform the mined and partially fruit-flavoured chocolate into sweet pastries such as cakes, biscuits, pralines and so on. They are therefore rarely seen down in the mines, but rather at the ovens in, around and under the gingerbread palace. That's where their delicious creations are made. When they are not working, they like to relax in the hot milk springs - but not for too long, so that they don't melt away.
