Answering the demands of fans across the UK, this new launch offers a contemporary twist on the GALAXY\u00ae Truffle, which first found fame in the mixed CELEBRATIONS box.<\/p>\n<p>GALAXY\u00ae Truffles have long had a loyal fanbase \u2013 we all remember the infamous gifting scene in Gavin and Stacey, back in 2008, when characters Gavin Shipman and Uncle Bryn shouted, \u201cI got the GALAXY\u00ae Truffle!\u201d \u2013 declaring it the best in the box. So, when GALAXY\u00ae Truffles left the mix back in 2011, devoted Truffle lovers petitioned passionately for their return.
