Lost in the Truffle

Roscar’s Country Truffles

Poking around the monkey bars and hanging out by the seesaws so you can loot off of some poor kid’s lost candy stash? Pretty. darn. sad.

Act your age by opting for the very adult taste of Roscar’s country truffles. The morsels come in combinations like liqueur and pistachios (milk couverture, ground nuts, and cherry liqueur), amaretto and pecan (milk chocolate and amaretto liqueur), and apple and rum-raisin (cinnamon, sun-dried apples, and rum-marinated raisins).

The handcrafted confections also come infused with adult beverages such as Grand Marnier, Kahlua, and tequila. But don’t fret: The Bastrop-based company also offers alcohol-free delights — like double-dark green tea, double-dark ginger, basil, and mint — for the underage indulger.

Although, lucky for you, these treats could hardly be considered kid stuff.
