FAQs
Can I make Mango Truffles Recipe ahead of time?
Yes! Prepare the ganache and shape the truffles up to 2 days ahead. Keep them refrigerated and add fresh toppings just before serving.
What’s the best substitute for white chocolate?
Milk chocolate works well for a milder flavor, or use a vegan white chocolate alternative for dairy‑free version.
How do I store leftovers?
Place leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze as described above.
Why did my ganache turn out grainy?
Over‑heating the chocolate can cause graininess. Heat gently and stir continuously until smooth.
