Our Forage Collection of smooth, creamy chocolate truffles are made from locally gathered and cultivated mushrooms, both functional and culinary, infused in tree syrup- and honey- sweetened ganaches for a balanced, umami-rich, earthy flavor experience you won’t find anywhere else. For the full forest-y experience, we create these dusty little beauties in shapes, colors and matte textures that evoke their namesake mushrooms, looking like something you’d come across when foraging in the deep woods.
And of course, all of our recipes are created to be absolutely delicious.
Available during the summer and fall months as we gather fresh mushrooms, and periodically throughout the winter and spring as we are inspired and as supplies of our dried stash last.
