Why are there no prices online?

White truffles cannot be cultivated. They are found in the forest by trained dogs, and the harvest depends heavily on rain and temperature. Prices on the truffle markets therefore move almost daily, and they depend on the size, shape and quality of each individual truffle. Instead of an outdated price list, we send you a concrete offer at today's price.

Grades and sizes

White truffles are graded by shape, size and condition. We are happy to advise which grade suits your use.

White truffle FAQ

When is white truffle season?

The white truffle (Tuber magnatum) is harvested from about late September to January, with the best period from October to December. The bianchetto truffle (Tuber borchii) follows from mid-January to April.

Why are there no prices on the website?

White truffle prices change almost daily depending on the harvest, and depend on size and quality. That is why we always quote you today's price.

How much truffle do I need per person?

As a guide, allow about 8 to 10 grams of white truffle per person per dish, shaved raw over the finished plate.

How do I store white truffles?

Wrap each truffle in kitchen paper, place it in an airtight glass jar and keep it in the fridge at 2–4 °C. Change the paper every day and enjoy the truffle within a few days, when its aroma is at its strongest.

Do you deliver throughout Switzerland?

Yes, we deliver across Switzerland, including Zurich, Geneva, Basel, Bern, Lausanne, Lucerne, Zug and Lugano. Ask us about delivery dates and options.

Can restaurants order regularly?

Yes. During the season we supply restaurants, hotels and delicatessens regularly, matched to the quantities and grades you need.
