Put luxury into your life with a favorite for over 100 years…Cherry Cordials. But get ready – True Treats’ cherry cordials are made by hand: - cherries bathed in chocolate made with an original recipe dating back over 100 years. The cherries are small and surrounded by a traditional sugar glaze that adds sweetness and enhances the taste of the cherry. The chocolate is rich and yields easily when you bite into it. No industrial waxiness. None of the tastelessness of other mass-produced chocolate. The texture, meanwhile, is smooth: smooth chocolate, smooth glaze, with a supple cherry inside. Enjoy the old-fashioned way: with tea or after-dinner coffee, at celebratory parties, and as the ultimate gift. Comes with a keepsake card telling the story of cherry cordials and a period image on the front.

The Sweet Story of Cherry Cordials: From Medicine to Dessert
These delightful cherry cordials are packed with flavor and history. Glace cherries have been enjoyed in North America since the colonies. And the first chocolate mill opened its doors near Boston in the 1760s. Both delights were used for health and medicine. In fact, a “cordial” was exactly that: a medicinal concoction dating back to the 1400s. Today both are enjoyed because of their flavor, versatility and because their delicious flavor makes us feel good…! Got the Full Story of the Making and Remaking of the American Cordial Here.
