As holiday festivities wind down to a close, often so does our intake of all those delicious holiday treats! It’s okay if you’ve used this last month (okay, okay, last couple of months) to take full advantage of the goodies that seem to pop up everywhere. But if you’re ready to take a break (or even if you’re not!), our Oil of the Month selection is going to help satisfy that sweet tooth. Say HELLO to Chocolate Truffle!
When you step into a gourmet chocolate shop or crack open that decadent box of truffles, you’re quickly enveloped in the deep, rich, sensual smell of high-quality chocolate. For many of us, it’s a familiar and satisfying aroma we just can’t seem to get enough of.
So, for this wonderful holiday season, we decided to bottle it up for you! Now you can enjoy it as often as you’d like, without dealing with the temptation of being surrounded by such delicious treats.
Background
So how did we bottle up a chocoholic’s dream scent? Using just the two amazing aromas of Vanilla Extract and Cocoa Absolute, the result was nothing less than scrumptious. The name Chocolate Truffle leaves little to the imagination and there is nothing else better to compare to this scent!
You’ll notice that we have not given this blend our KidSafe stamp of approval. This is because Chocolate Truffle features a very aromatic vanilla extract that contains a 25% ethanol content. Due to our strict company guidelines for what qualifies an essential oil or blend to be KidSafe, we have decided Chocolate Truffle does not quite meet the mark. However, the decision is entirely personal if you would like to diffuse this around children.
While some parents may be concerned about the small amount of ethanol being absorbed or put into the air, others are not. Either way is just fine, and as always, don’t hesitate to reach out to our amazing team of aromatherapists if you have any questions (aromatherapist@planttherapy.com).
Benefits
Chocolate Truffle has a fabulous fragrance that you can enjoy with your aromatherapy diffuser, necklace, or personal inhaler. While capturing the perfect scent was the driving force behind this blend, don’t forget about how the way a wonderful smell makes you feel.
If the aroma of chocolate is something you find comforting, emotionally supportive, or it just always seems to put a big smile on your face, Chocolate Truffle is right up your alley!
Blending
Think of the most delicious bite of chocolate you’ve ever had, then think about what other flavors would be divine with it. Oranges? Coffee? Maybe something a little spicy? Blending with Chocolate Truffle can be as adventurous as you want it to be!
To get you started, try this wonderfully smelling ChocoLatte diffuser blend, add 3 drops of Chocolate Truffle, 3 drops of Coffee Essential Oil, and 1-2 drops of Cinnamon Bark to enjoy a rich and spicy latte aroma!
