About COCOA DUSTED BELGIAN TRUFFLES, COCOA
Meijer Cocoa Dusted Belgian Truffles are a chocolate confectionery product sold under the Meijer private label brand by Meijer, Inc. of Grand Rapids, Michigan. These fall in the chocolate category. Belgian-style truffles are ganache or fat-based chocolate confections shaped into rounds or irregular lumps and dusted with cocoa powder on the exterior, giving a rustic presentation characteristic of artisanal chocolate formats.
The ingredient composition is simple and relatively premium for a private-label product. Vegetable oil — a blend of coconut and palm kernel oils — is the primary fat base, providing the ganache-like firm-but-melting texture. Sugar is the second ingredient. Fat-reduced cocoa is noted with an asterisk, likely indicating fair trade or certified origin status in the original labeling (the asterisk without a corresponding footnote in the USDA record). Whey powder from milk is the dairy component, contributing to the creamy texture. Emulsifier is provided by sunflower and/or canola lecithin, which is a soy-free emulsifier choice. Allergens include milk (whey powder). This product is free of soy lecithin, using sunflower or canola lecithin instead.
Nutritionally, this truffle provides 600 calories per 100 grams with 40g carbohydrates, 3.33g protein, and 46.67g fat. Fiber is 6.7g per 100g from the cocoa. The calorie density is very high, as expected for a chocolate confection with a high vegetable fat base. Serving size is 30 grams.
