Still a few hours left with a couple still hanging in the balance.

Turned out to be an entertaining thread Trev, good for you!

No certainly not, naive perhaps.
But yes what is the connection, do they have any truffle in them at all. Very dilute form of truffle oil or essence maybe.

Chocolate truffles are so named because of their resemblance to the fungi truffles.
(Early 20th Century addition)

Truffle the fungus is from the Latin trufera meaning root/tuber.

No truffle oil in chocolate truffles (hopefully some dark rum though!) mmmmm

edit: I see Pete beat me to the etymological punch!

Being a diabetic on insulin, I recused myself from the voting early on.

Still interested in seeing which one wins, though.

Congrats, Trev, on an interesting thread.
