Midnight in a Box: Rum and Vanilla Truffles made with velvety 70% Dark Chocolate: 48 delicious truffles in a dark box, ribbon tied

One perfect truffle. Then another. And another. Velvety 70% dark chocolate surrenders to an unapologetic wave of Caribbean rum and bourbon vanilla, the flavours rolling into cocoa dust like the finishing touch on an exclusive after-party in Venice.

Forty-eight hand-finished pieces arrive dressed in midnight armour, presented in a ribbon-tied black box. Open after dinner—once the port has circulated, possibly twice—and watch conversation gently soften and the room fall quietly in love. Members with sensitive reputations are tempted to conceal the box behind the decanters—some pleasures are too intense to share.

For the non-member, £100 a box; for Members, £59. Made by an artisan family; natural ingredients, naturally.
