I've said it before, and I'll say it again - if Trader Joe's offers a chocolate, we will try it. 

Today, we review Trader Joe's Donuts Forever Truffles. An irresistibly cute box of 6 donut-shaped chocolate truffles. The package costs $4.49.

Inside the bakery-style window box, you'll find 2 each of three flavors of truffles: 

• milk chocolate with caramel filling and nonpareils
• dark chocolate with chocolate filling
• white chocolate with cinnamon filling and speculoos cookie bits

Speaking of donuts...have you tried these recipes?

• glazed and sprinkled chocolate cake donut holes (how sweet eats)
• lemon poppy seed donuts (baker by nature)
• latte and donut decorated cookies (bake at 350)

The truffles are a product of Belgium. We've reviewed a few Trader Joe's Belgian items: Trader Joe's Belgian Cookie Assortment, Trader Joe's Milk Chocolate Bar with Corn Flakes, and Trader Joe's Pound Plus Milk Chocolate Bar with Caramel, Pretzel Bits & Sea Salt. 

Trader Joe's Donuts Forever Truffles Review

She says (Bridget): DONUT pass go. DONUT collect $200. DONUT expect much from these Donuts Forever Truffles. Lackluster in both flavor and texture, I found these to be a bit pasty with no rich chocolatey goodness. The other flavors mentioned in the description tasted muted and muddled. The phrase that immediately came to mind was "grocery store truffles." And, to be fair, these ARE technically grocery store truffles, but I've come to expect more from TJ's. We actually tossed the box without finishing them. 

Overall rating: 1 of 5 stars

He says (Mark): "Donuts Forever!" is a Brilliant phrase. The packaging is excellent, and the portion size (2) is about right. I favored the milk and dark chocolate pieces. The top coatings were balanced and appealing to the eye. I was not a fan of the white chocolate version (it's not me, it's you, White Chocolate). Fun, but alas, these truffles are just okay - not something to write home about (oh, wait…I just did!).

Overall rating: 3 of 5 stars

Will we buy these again? No. We'll be on the lookout for Trader Joe's next chocolate offering! 

Trader Joe's Donuts Forever Truffles: We DONUT think these are the best Trader Joe's has to offer.
