1/2 cup Mason & Co Cacao Powder

“It is very exciting for me as a plant-based chef to be a recipe developer for a company whose products I have been using for a number of years! This is the first of many recipes I am creating for Mason & Co and I couldn’t be happier to share the recipe so you can create your own plant-based & vegan desserts at home using Mason & Co products! I make these little treats all the time for friends, family and for our coffee shop where we serve Indian coffee & vegan/vegetarian desserts. This vegan & gluten-free recipe is super-easy & the desserts are so rich and creamy – here’s the recipe for my Coconut Cacao Truffles; including guidelines for plating the ultimate vegan dessert dish. Enjoy fully, totally & completely!” – Kelly
Instructions:
Place the chopped 55% Coconut Mylk Dark Chocolate bar into a mixing bowl & place onto a pan of water to melt the chocolate. (Double-boiler method)
In a separate bowl, add coconut cream, vanilla and cacao powder. Whisk well until all is combined.
Once the chocolate has melted, slowly add to the coconut mixture while continuing to stir. Mix until a smooth & even consistency is formed.
Pour the combined mixture into your silicon moulds & tap to release any air bubbles.
Place into the freezer for 2-3 hours to set.
Once set, remove from moulds & coat with Mason & Co Cacao Powder – then place in fridge until ready to serve!
Plating:
Take a clean plate & place the melted chocolate off-centre. With a plating brush, create brush strokes across the plate.
Take the truffles and place onto the chocolate brush strokes, then take cacao nibs and sprinkle on top of each truffle.
Finally, take a pinch of cacao powder & sprinkle across to finish!
Serve estimate: 12 truffle bars Freezer friendly: 1 month Fridge storage: 1 week

The recipe sounds both simple and indulgent — the combo of rich dark chocolate and coconut cream is a dream. I’ve tried making something similar during my downtime (usually after rage-quitting Flappy Bird, honestly 😅), and there's something so calming about it. Thanks, Kelly, for sharing this — definitely adding these truffles to my weekend treat list!

I tried making these Coconut Cacao Truffles by Kelly Mason, and they turned out great! The recipe is easy to follow and uses simple, healthy ingredients. My family loved them as a sweet treat.

Thanks for sharing this fun and tasty guest blog recipe. I’ll be making these again soon!
