It is believed that the Belgian Praline is at the origin of chocolate liquors. Belgians started specializing in making chocolates filled with cream, liquor, and caramel when chocolates became famous. Nowadays, almost every major chocolate producing company has its own version of liquor flavored chocolate candy. Consequently, numerous shapes and designs exist. Some of the candies even have the shape of the fruit from which the alcohol was extracted.

They usually have, inside and outside, relatively thin layers of milk flavored dark chocolate. The color is rarely white and the sides are covered with granulated sugar. They contain a small amount of fruit alcohol and they are available in different flavors. Those flavors could be exotic fruits like pineapple, papaya, and mango, or common fruits such as: berry, peach, and orange. Other brand may contain more refined alcohol like Cointreau or Grand Marnier.
