About this deal

Pink Champagne: Fruity and enlivening milk chocolate and cream truffles with a generous splash of Mercier Champagne and a hint of strawberry. Whatever your tastes, explore our collection Browse our range of irresistible liqueur-filled chocolates to find your perfect tipsy treat.

We have got all bases covered regardless of your favourite tipple — including the ever-popular gin. If you adore gin and chocolate, our Chocolate and Gin Gift Collection will satisfy your preferences. This collection includes two 50ml bottles of small-batch cacao gin distilled in the traditional way with a burst of juniper and zesty Minneolas. We used cacao shells from our farm on Saint Lucia to create an aromatic cocoa depth.

Our Irresistible New Chocolate Liqueurs – and What to Do With Them

Paired with a comforting mug of hot chocolate; nibbled alongside a coffee; or simply savoured on its own — there are so many ways to enjoy chocolate truffles. And with an expansive array of flavour combinations to try, our collection of luxury chocolate truffles has something for everyone. At Hotel Chocolat, we’ve delved deep into experimenting with different alcohol chocolate flavours, and we’ve kept the best for you to try. We only have room to talk about a few here, but our Tipsy Truffles Sleekster has them all — treat yourself!

When you really want to surprise someone, go for the Chocolate and Fizz Collection. This option gives you the perfect pairing of prosecco with a variety of different signature chocolates. Enjoy a selection of some of our favourites then wash it all down with a 20cl bottle of clean and full-bodied prosecco from the Dolomite foothills near Venice. First, chocolatiers cast the alcohol into starch moulds to remove any water in the alcohol. It’s this water content that causes alcohol to evaporate. The result is a formed sugar shell containing the spirit.Premium spirits and smooth irresistible chocolate is a match made in heaven. The partnership of alcohol and chocolate in its many forms is meant to be a delectable treat suitable for many occasions — but getting steaming drunk, however, is not one of them.

Pair milk chocolate with a light white wine like a Pinot Grigio to really bring out the smooth, creaminess of the milk chocolate. The refreshing, crisp notes of the wine will cleanse your palate for the mellow cocoa notes running through our 40% Milk. Next is our silky-smooth 40% Milk Batons. Each solid piece has been carefully designed to showcase the mellow yet cacao-rich notes of our signature 40% milk chocolate. With their elegant size and perfect snap, they’re ideal for nibbling, savouring and sharing. For a cold winter’s night, there is also the option of the alcoholic hot chocolate — the perfect fireside companion. For this, we turn to the spirit cupboard. A shot of gin would be a good option to lift the creaminess of a white hot chocolate, and a cherry vodka (as inspired by Polish tradition) adds extra depth to milk or dark hot chocolate. The sugar crust is able to capture the nuances and distinct flavours of the liqueur, drawing it out better to create that perfect, decadent bite. One for the grown-ups, Your Eggsellency is a truly opulent Easter delight. Filled with boozy truffles, it’s the perfect way to experience the joys of Spring. Presented in a gorgeous reusable tin, it makes an excellent gift for a loved one — or a tipsy treat for yourself.

Gift Sleeves

But to no one’s surprise, some people have tried. One such attempt led to a dedicated test subject consuming 20 truffles which were around 5% alcohol in volume. At the end of the test, the blood alcohol reading on the breathalyser was a resounding 0.00. It’s highly likely your stomach would give out long before you got to any substantial levels of inebriation. A timeless treat with an ambiguous beginning. However chocolate liqueurs came about, they are a classic tidbit we adore at times of celebration. How do chocolatiers fill chocolates with alcohol?
