Diamonds are forever, but chocolate truffles are a far better gift. This collaboration between Charbonnel et Walker and the much-loved James Bond franchise combines luxurious dark chocolate with vodka, gin, vermouth and a twist of lemon. Shaken, not stirred, obviously. The 007 Dry Martini Truffles are inspired by the Vesper Martini, which was invented by author Ian Fleming for the first outing of his most famous character in the 1953 novel, Casino Royale. Each chocolate truffle delivers the same exhilarating thrill that the opening scene of a James Bond film does. Established in 1875, Charbonnel et Walker is one of Britain’s first and foremost chocolate makers. After a little cajoling from Edward VII, Mrs Walker and Madame Charbonnel’s opened a shop making chocolate fit for royalty. That shop has stood on Bond Street ever since and has been frequented by the likes of Princess Diana, Princess Margaret, Wallis Simpson, Sir John Gielgud, Sir Alec Guinness, Lauren Bacall, Noel Coward and many more.
