Super Bowl Sunday is approaching! A football theme is typical for a Super Bowl party, but why not make it more decadent with gluten free truffles shaped similar to or exactly like footballs? For coating your truffles, you should use a good quality chocolate versus chocolate morsels or chips, as chips contain ingredients to help them keep their shape, and do melt well for this task. If your budget does not allow for this, and you decide to use melting chips, ensure that they are gluten free. Read additional gluten free product and truffle making tips below. Have fun, and enjoy the game! (Find 25 other gluten free football recipes (click here).
Coloring white chocolate or candy making flavored chocolate can be fun, and creative. Perhaps dip half in dark or milk chocolate and the other half in colored white chocolate to match the team colors you’re routing for, such as the 49’ers red and gold.
If do decide to color white chocolate, note that Ghirardelli makes a candy making white chocolate flavored bar. Both the white and double chocolate flavored bars are made in a gluten free facility and on gluten free lines. Their real white chocolate baking bar is gluten free, however is not made on gluten free lines, or in a gluten free facility. Though chocolate chips should never be used for coating truffles, note that Ghirardelli white chocolate chips are not made in a gluten free facility, but on clean lines. They clean the manufacturing lines well prior to making any of their gluten free products.
Never use liquid food coloring in chocolate, but either purchase gluten free colored candy making melts or use food coloring paste or powder in real white chocolate.
When decorating, note that Wilton’s icing decorating tubes and decorations are gluten free, per their blog post, No Gluten No Problem.
You may also add nuts to the truffle mixture, if desired.

Tips
If your hands tend to be warm, run them under cold water prior to shaping the truffles, or wear clean, thin rubber gloves and dip your hands in ice water. This prevents the chocolate from melting and sticking to your hands.
If cutting this recipe in half and using a real chocolate coating, still use 1 lb. of chocolate for dipping, as using less does not work well.
Allergens vary depending upon the chocolate and whipping cream you use.
