BELGIUM. Godiva Chocolatier will launch a new generation of modern truffles with unique flavours and luxurious burgundy gift packaging at TFWA World Exhibition this month (Stand: Yellow Village F33).

Traditionally, truffles have a soft centre of ganache, butter cream or mousse. Godiva’s reinvented Truffle Collection includes six original centres: apricot, cashew, coconut, pear, raspberry and strawberry.

Godiva’s Head Chocolate Maker Jean-Claude Sibret said: “The reinvention of the truffle reflects the perfect balance between Godiva’s truffle history and the modern world of today. We drew our inspiration from the fashion world and its ability to have all aspects, from texture to colour, existing in wonderful harmony.”

Available from January 2006, the Truffle Collection will be presented in a burgundy box in a ten-piece cornet; a nine-piece alcohol-free; a 16-piece box; or a 24-piece ballotin.
