Assorted filled chocolates arranged in a box.

Belgian pralines

Belgium · Europe

Short description
These filled chocolates focus on contrast: a thin shell outside and a soft, flavored center inside.
Ingredients
Chocolate shells filled with ganache, nut paste, caramel, cream, butter, sugar, or liqueur.
Cultural note
The key technique is the molded filled shell, which turns small chocolates into individual flavor combinations.
Common misconception
They are not the same as sugar-coated nuts; here the word usually means filled chocolates.
