Godiva’s Signature Truffles should become the Eighth Wonder of the World. Crack the smooth chocolate shells and lose yourself inside their soft truffle centres. Flavoured with exotic ingredients from around the globe, this box contains eight truffles: two Truffe Traditionelle (a creamy speciality from Joseph Drap’s first shop in Belgium), two Truffe Mousse Vanille Miel (truffles containing a honey vanilla mousse), two Truffe Framboise (dark chocolate and raspberry), and two Truffe Amère (extra dark chocolate). This eight-piece box is nothing short of a magnum opus from a master chocolatier. 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.
