  • Fresh black truffle is often paired with pasta, risotto and eggs, but it also works well in unexpected dishes — burgers and fries, sushi, creamy desserts, or grated over vanilla ice cream.

    If you’re new to truffle, keep it simple: pair it with mild, high-quality ingredients so the truffle shines — butter, cream, baked brie, eggs, pasta, mashed potato, soups.

  • Depends on the dish and personal taste. For a subtle touch, use about 5 g per person per dish. For a richer, more indulgent version, use over 10 g per person per dish.

  • Wrap the truffle in a paper towel and put it in a sealed container, glass jar, or zip-top bag. Store it in the crisper, not the coldest part of the fridge. Replace the paper towel daily to prevent dampness. Truffles begin to lose quality once dug up, so use within 7–10 days for best flavour.

    You can also store truffles with foods that absorb their aroma, such as eggs (flavour can pass through the eggshell), cream, milk, cheese, and butter.

    • Orders are sent Monday - Thursday on an overnight courier (this may be longer for rural delivery options).

    • Truffles are packaged in a display jar (larger orders are vacuum packed). All perishable orders are sent with ice packs in a recyclable chillbox.

    • Order weight of fresh truffle is the minimum amount that will be supplied. The truffles are packaged in a variety of sizes which will amount to the total amount of grams ordered.

    • Orders must be placed by 9am Wednesday to ensure delivery before the weekend, otherwise it will be sent the following Monday.

  • We aim to send orders in perfect condition but are not responsible for items once they leave our premises. Due to their perishability, truffle purchases are non‑refundable. Report any problems by email within 24 hours of delivery and include a photo.

    Loss & damage: Truffles are fragile; we pack them with ice, chiller boxes and overnight courier. Risk of loss or damage transfers to the customer once items are dispatched. If an order is lost in transit, we will not replace it until the original is found and returned. To reduce risk, be home for delivery or have it sent to your workplace.
