What’s the best way to store pumpkin cheesecake truffles?

You can store your truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. If you’d like to keep them longer, you can freeze them for up to a month—just thaw in the fridge before serving so the cheesecake filling isn’t too firm.

Can I make pumpkin cheesecake truffles ahead of time for a party?

Absolutely. Because this is a no-bake dessert, you can roll the truffle centers ahead and then coat them with chocolate or sugar shortly before the event. Chilling ahead helps everything stay firm and makes serving easier.

Are these pumpkin cheesecake truffles suitable for gluten-free or vegan diets?

They can be! For a gluten-free version, just swap in gluten-free graham cracker crumbs or almond flour. For a vegan version, use dairy-free cream cheese, dairy-free chocolate, and a plant-based binder. You’ll still get the creamy pumpkin cheesecake flavour with the right substitutions.

Do I need to bake these pumpkin cheesecake truffles?

No, you don’t. The cream cheese and pumpkin mixture is chilled and set in the fridge rather than baked. This makes it ideal if you’re short on oven time but still want that rich cheesecake-style dessert.
