Common Questions
- → Is it possible to make these in advance?
Totally, just keep them in the fridge for up to 5 days. They’re awesome for making early for parties.
- → My truffles aren’t holding together. What’s wrong?
Give your mix enough time in the fridge—about 2-3 hours—so it stiffens up before shaping.
- → Can I swap the colors?
Go for it! Pick whatever food dye and sprinkles vibe with your celebration.
- → How do I keep my melted chocolate silky?
Zap it in the microwave a little at a time and stir after each burst so it doesn’t scorch.

Yep! Pop them in a sealed container and freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost in the fridge.
