Chocolate, by definition, is a food or flavoring, typically a smooth sweet brown solid, made from roasted and ground cacao seeds usually sweetened and mixed with cocoa butter and dried milk. You may think that the best chocolates come from Switzerland, France, or Italy.  Who would think premium chocolates came from Portland!  **Moonstruck Chocolates** are the pride of Portland, Oregon! They've been crafting its gourmet chocolate truffles, bars and cocoa since 1993   I received my first box of **Moonstruck Chocolate Truffles **as a gift.  The first thing I noticed was the exquisite midnight blue box and bow; almost too beautiful to open.  But then again we're talking chocolate.  I carefully removed the bow and opened the box to find the most beautifully sculpted chocolate truffles I'd ever seen, let alone eaten.  Each truffle was finely designed, decorated like a precious gem, and individually hand dipped. One truffle had a small piece of gold leafing on it, so elegant I hesitated to eat it!  My hesitation didn't last very long;  creamy, well blended flavors that melt in your mouth. Needless to say the box never made it home.  I  agreed to share them with my staff who insisted we cut each one into quarters so we all had an opportunity to sample each one. Decadently delectable! Being a self proclaimed chocolate snob **Moonstruck Chocolate Truffles **are by far a cut above the rest.  Who knew the most heavenly truffles would come from Portland, Oregon! **Moonstruck Chocolate Truffles **are, in my opinion, worth their weight in chocolate.  Bon Appetite! **NOTEWORTHY**:  **Moonstruck Chocolate Truffles** make a great holiday gift for that special someone!
