A SHORT HISTORY OF THE CHOCOLATE TRUFFLE CAKE
The chocolate truffle cake’s history is tied to the creation of chocolate truffles by French pastry chef Louis Dufour in 1895. He mixed fresh cream, vanilla, and chocolate, then coated the ganache with melted dark chocolate and rolled it in cocoa powder. This treat quickly became popular.
In the early 20th century, pastry chefs began using the rich ganache in larger desserts, leading to the development of the chocolate truffle cake. This trend spread to the United States, where chefs adapted the recipe, often adding butterfat or coconut oil.
Today, chocolate truffle cakes come in various forms, from simple ganache-filled cakes to elaborate multi-layered desserts, all celebrated for their luxurious taste and texture.
