\"WhiteIf you\u2019ve been following along you would know that a few summers ago, I made a white chocolate coconut Raffaello tart<\/strong><\/a>. It was amazing. Creamy, brightened with raspberries and evocative of the original Ferrero truffles.<\/p>\n

\"WhiteSoon after, I made a white chocolate Raffaello layer cake<\/strong><\/a>. A raspberry and vanilla cake, layered with white chocolate and coconut mascarpone cream, and coated entirely in coconut. It quickly became one of my most popular recipes that readers baked and shared on Instagram<\/strong><\/a>, and one of my most ordered custom layer cakes<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

So I decided it\u2019s high time I recreate the original white chocolate coconut Raffaello truffle.<\/p>\n

\"WhiteDid you know there\u2019s not actually any white chocolate in a Raffaello? It\u2019s called a coconut almond confection. When I found that out, I was so surprised \u2013 because to me they really do taste like white chocolate! As much as I love the truffles (and I really do), it had me worried about what is<\/em> inside there.<\/p>\n

\"WhiteI can tell you what\u2019s inside my version of Raffaello truffles!!! White chocolate, coconut, cream, and an optional almond in the center for crunch. Oh! And if you are salty-sweet inclined like me, you can add some sea salt.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s it! And they taste like the real thing! And they\u2019re so easy to make!<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re white chocolate coconut inclined, you\u2019re going to love these, promise.<\/p>\n
