White truffles are exceptionally rare because they cannot be cultivated. They grow only in the wild, in symbiosis with specific trees such as oaks, poplars, and hazels. This dependence on natural ecosystems, combined with a short harvest season from October to December, makes them one of the most exclusive and coveted ingredients in the culinary world.

How to use white truffles:

  • White truffles should never be cooked, as heat destroys their delicate aroma and flavor.
  • They are best enjoyed fresh and raw, shaved or grated directly over dishes such as pasta, risotto, eggs, potatoes, delicate meats, or creamy sauces, where they elevate gastronomy to poetry.
  • To preserve their fragrance, shave the truffle just before serving and avoid cooking it in high heat.
  • White truffles can also be lightly infused into unsalted butter or high-quality olive oil, which captures their aroma without applying direct heat

Storing Truffles:

Do not wash truffles before storage—leave a little soil on them to help preserve freshness. Wrap each truffle individually in a clean paper towel and place them in a sealed container or jar in the refrigerator. Replace the paper towel daily. Just before serving, rinse the truffles under cold water and gently brush away any remaining soil. Pat them dry with a kitchen cloth or paper towel, and they’re ready to enjoy. For optimal flavor, consume within 7 to 9 days of delivery.

Fast Delivery:

Your truffles will arrive at your door within 24–48 hours of ordering. They are carefully packed in specially designed packaging to maintain optimal freshness and protect their delicate aroma and texture during transit, ensuring you receive them in perfect condition.
