Chocolates are perhaps the most common gift for the host/hostess. Trump all the other boxes of chocolates with The Ultimate Chocolate Truffle from Dean and DeLuca. This indulgence is handcrafted by dipping a 1 oz. fresh tuber melonosporum in a dark chocolate ganache, made from 70 percent French Valrhona chocolate mixed with fresh cream infused with vanilla and pure Italian truffle oil. It is then rolled in cocoa powder, wrapped and tucked into its own little gold box. The time and energy that goes into its creation and the exceptional ingredients that are used make this the most expensive truffle in the world priced at $350.00 each! (via Dean & DeLuca)
