Cherry Vanilla Truffle

Not a Truffle to be Trifled with! Exploding with aphrodisiac herbs, this little pretty mound is kissed with our raw cherry-vanilla jam and dark chocolate ganache creme layers. The deep intensity of raw cacao looks you in the eye and tells you to that you are a Deity, and Life on Earth is to be cherished. So relax and Enjoy the ride!

Ingredients: Cacao Beans*, Coconut Palm Sugar*, Bing Cherries*, Tahini*, Agave*, Coconut Oil*, Maca Root*, Vanilla Bean*, Aphrodisiac Herbs (Damiana, Maca*, Fo Ti*, Dong Quai*), Aronia Berry*, Love. *organic


Passionfruit Cupuaçu Truffle

If Theobroma Cacao is the Food of the Gods, then this must be food of the Goddesses! Yes, this is the Brazilian relative of the chocolate tree. A primary food in the Amazon but little known far from her home, Cupuaçu’s passionfruit flavor lends perfectly to the creamy center of this dark chocolate coated truffle.

Ingredients: Raw Cacao Beans*, Coconut Palm Sugar*, Stone-Ground Cashews*, Virgin Coconut Oil*, Passionfruit*, Cupuaçu Fruit, Aphrodisiac Herbs (Damiana*, Maca*, Fo Ti*, Dong Quai*), Love. *organic 

 

Wild White Rose Truffle 

This is a dream-come-true for white chocolate lovers! Using absolutely no cream, soy, or sugar, we created the “creamiest,” most romantic raw vegan white chocolate with Rose Petals, Pomegranate, and Lemon Zest! Attention Dark Chocolate Lovers: A friendly reminder from Team Gnosis: this is not your ordinary white chocolate candy so give it a whirl and see where it leads you...

Ingredients: Stone-Ground Cashews*, Raw Cacao Butter*, Coconut Palm Sugar*, Pomegranate*, Lemon and Rose Essential Oils*, Rose Petal*, Love. *organic

 

Madagascar Mylk Truffle

Cacao from Madagascar is considered by many to create some of the world's finest chocolate. Naturally fruity in flavor, it is unusually rich in antioxidant flavonoids, minerals, and nutrients. Since Malagasy cacao comprises less than 1% of the world's production, this VEGAN mylk truffle is - even beyond its kaleidoscopic flavor spectrum - a rare gift that Nature has entrusted us to bring you.

Ingredients: Raw Cacao Beans*, Coconut Palm Sugar*, Stone-Ground Cashew Butter*, Love. *organic

 


About the Collection

For Valentine’s Day,  Gnosis has alchemized a chocolate that fully lives up to the original meaning of “valentine” (in Latin, valens): “worthy,” “strong,” and “powerful.”  And it’s all created 100% by hand in our Long Island City kitchen and folded into raw, organic, vegan chocolate that’s free of soy, gluten, dairy, and refined sugar.

You already know that chocolate is a true laboratory of love. While there are a great many agents in nature which boost libido and enhance sexual function, chocolate alone actually promotes the brain chemistry of being in love. Its chemicals stimulate our brain juices to flow into rivers of desire: serotonin to heighten sexual excitation, desire, and responsiveness; dopamine to intensify pleasure; anandamine (the “bliss chemical”) to induce euphoria, and; phenylethylamine (PEA - the “Love Chemical”), a chemical that  mimics the brain chemistry of a person in love, energizing us, and enhancing our sense of well-being.

The invitation from the truffles in the Passion Collection is warm, their intent, clear: “Enjoy...” But which to try first?  

Should we begin with the Passion truffle, its glistening, dark chocolate shell filled with an irresistible creme blend of passionfruit and cupuaçu?

Or should we start by savoring the blend of organic bing cherries, vanilla jam, and dark chocolate ganache that surprises us inside the Cherry Vanilla truffle?  

If the White Rose truffle attracts us the most, will we - when confronted by the most romantic, delicious raw vegan white chocolate flavored with rose petals, pomegranate, and lemon zest imaginable - be able to believe that it contains no cream, soy milk, or sugar?

English poet, William Blake, suggested that the world could be seen “...in a grain of sand...” and heaven “...in a wild flower.”  Were he alive today - and had he experienced these truffles - he might have added to the opening of Auguries of Innocence that Love could be sweetly seen “...in a truffle.”
