The mysterious Savoy Truffle, apparently was always the prized truffle, of all the 11 flavors from Mackintosh's Good News chocolates. An actual candy store in Halifax, United Kingdom.
According to
George Harrison, "'Savoy Truffle' on The White Album was written for Eric [Clapton]. He's got this real sweet tooth and he'd just had his mouth worked on. His dentist said he was through with candy. So as a tribute I wrote, 'You'll have to have them all pulled out after the Savoy Truffle'. The truffle was some kind of sweet, just like all the rest - cream tangerine, ginger sling - just candy, to tease Eric."
