A truffle is made using a very specific ganache, the ratio of cream to chocolate in a recipe. This ganache gives truffles their characteristic softness and texture. The ratio for a basic truffle ganache is one cup of cream to one pound of chocolate. Incidentally, chocolate truffles were named after mushroom truffles because of the similarity in appearance.
