Baci Original Dark Chocolate Truffles: A Timeless Expression of Love and Friendship
A Chocolate with a Romantic Story: Baci Original Dark Chocolate Truffles are not just confections but a piece of romantic history. Invented in 1922 by Luisa Spagnoli as a token of love for her secret lover, Giovanni Buitoni, these chocolates have since become synonymous with affection and friendship. Each truffle, named "Baci," meaning "kisses" in Italian, is a testament to their timeless love story.
An Exquisite Blend of Flavors: These Baci truffles are crafted with the finest ingredients - luscious gianduja, hazelnuts, and 70% dark chocolate. Each truffle features a whole hazelnut atop a creamy gianduja and chopped hazelnut filling; all enrobed in velvety dark chocolate. The hidden message of love and friendship in each truffle makes it a sweet discovery and a delightful treat to savor with wine or to share with a loved one.
