There are different types of chocolate that can be used for the chocolate shell, such as milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or white chocolate.

The History of Pralines

The history of pralines dates back to the 17th century. At that time, candy-like sweets were first produced in France. These were filled with an almond or hazelnut and then dipped in chocolate. Over the centuries, pralines have evolved and are now available in many different variations.
