The topic guide : Buying and choosing
A kilo price does not describe the whole offer
Before comparing prices, check that both refer to the same species and format: whole fresh truffles, pieces or a prepared product. Net weight, batch origin and handover arrangements also matter. A wholesale batch requiring sorting cannot be compared directly with a selected retail truffle.
Convert the kilo price into your batch price
Multiply the kilo price by the weight in grams, then divide by 1,000. At the starting rate of €1,200/kg, 50 g costs €60, 75 g €90 and 100 g €120. These examples exclude delivery and do not reserve stock. The offered price and weight are confirmed before ordering.
What budget should you allow for a meal?
Start with the dish and number of guests. Our risotto for four uses 30 to 40 g; six servings therefore need 45 to 60 g. At €1,200/kg, that is €54 to €72 of truffle. Use the quantity guide to adapt the calculation. The House minimum is €50 of truffles excluding delivery, not a minimum weight of 50 g.
The rate for workshop participants
Participants may buy truffles found during their workshop at €900/kg, subject to availability, up to 100 g per person. The minimum truffle purchase remains €50. Buying is optional and separate from admission. A session guarantees neither a harvest nor a take-home quantity. Public sales on request start at €1,200/kg.
Keeping the cost down: compare what you need
To control spending, choose a specific dish and suitable weight rather than a large truffle without a recipe in mind. Ask whether several smaller pieces suit your preparation. Flavoured products or other species are not automatic substitutes for fresh black truffle. Confirm the complete price, including delivery, and the arrival schedule before ordering.
