Caring for Black Winter Truffles
BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE
When you receive your fresh truffles; remove them from the vacuum sealed packaging.
Truffles need to breathe. The poor things will suffocate if kept in this sealed packaging for more than two days. However, Fresh Black Winter Truffles will last up to 14 days if cared for and stored properly, although the aroma and flavour will gradually dissipate. Store them air-tight, sitting on and surrounded by paper towels. Keep them below 6 degrees. Take them out of the box, and change the surrounding paper daily, to ensure they are kept dry and natural gases can dissipate.
All our fresh truffles are delivered in specialist insulated packaging. This ensures they maintain a constant low temperature and they arrive to you as fresh as possible. We suggest that you do not store your fresh truffle in rice, as this will draw the aroma and flavour from the fresh truffle.
Take a look here for our full blog post on how best to care for fresh truffles.
Satisfaction Guaranteed
Every fresh truffle is individually quality checked and graded. This ensures they reach you in optimum condition. As such there may be very small “nicks” or notches on the exterior of the truffle; created during quality testing.

Truffle
Great advice when ordering a fresh black truffle as part of a Christmas gift. The order was processed quickly and the truffle arrived safely, fully protected and boxed. By closely following the online guidance the truffle stayed perfectly fresh for a few days. We snuffled freshly wafer thin slices of truffle on scrambled egg for Christmas breakfast.
