How to Experience
A Guided Tasting of an Exotic Truffle:
Our truffles are infused with a healing sound frequency to raise your vibe.
Breathe
Close your eyes. Take three deep, ujjayi breaths. Listen to the space between thought and prepare your palate to experience chocolate.
See
Describe what you see. What is the shape, color, sheen and texture?
Touch
Run your finger against the chocolate, noticing its texture and releasing the aromatics.
Smell
Bring the chocolate to your nose. Close your eyes, cup your hand around the chocolate and inhale deeply.
Taste
Enjoy your truffle in two bites. In the first bite, you are just getting to know the truffle, and in the second, you delve deeper, searching out the aromas and nuances. You become immersed in the experience of the chocolate and the sensations. After you’ve eaten the truffle, take a breath and taste the air. The aroma should have a long, lingering finish that is layered with perfumed notes.

Inspiration
"In my mind’s eye my Mama is calling me to her bedroom in Indiana. It is filled with the cakes I’ve baked for her in my Easy Bake Oven. Even at an early age, food was an expression of my love. It allowed me to show gratitude to others and was the language I used when I was too shy to use words to reveal my heart.
When I wasn’t baking, I was in nature, picking up stones and rocks as I went. Between the dawn and when she called me in at night, I marveled at the terrain. Everything I found there seemed to have meaning. It was filled with magical signs that only I could interpret.
But home was a place that moved slowly, and I sought somewhere that was a little bit quicker. The rhythms of the Universe called me to Vanderbilt. There I gravitated towards those that saw beauty clearly. My friend David was such a soul. Random (because I didn’t know to call that spiritual in the 90’s,) laid back and Californian. I wanted to understand what and who I was, and he exposed me to experiences that would shape the course of that education. He led me to a community that was bigger than the day to day, to a place where the music was magic and feeling it connected me to a universal source where I could see glimpses of the self I was on a quest for.
A Grateful Dead show held a space for feeling, open-heartedness, flow, and freedom. In a word it was DIVINE. The music was healing and while I knew that the path ahead of me was for my steps alone, those nights under skies of diamonds, filled with the lulling jams of space, were illuminating, transcendent and gave me a sense of belonging. It was a profound gathering, a collective. It was love. It was human.
At these shows my years long fascination with collecting pebbles and stones began to take on new meaning. Crystals found their way into the hands of many people in this otherworld. They were of the earth, each holding a vibration passed from caretaker to caretaker. Just like the music, they held mystical powers of healing. I’ve kept that knowledge close. As I have traveled the world bringing stories to life through the medium of chocolate, I have continued to study their therapeutic nature. I have released crystals to others when they would serve them better than me and allowed new ones to come me while my belief in their power has grown.
The epic trips of my life are filled with soundtracks of my own making and many of the songs and lessons come from the iconic storytelling of the Grateful Dead. For their generosity, I dedicate this collection to them.
Allow yourself to tap into the moments in your life that have quieted your thoughts and nurtured your soul. For myself, the Dead shows are one of those moments. When I close my eyes, I am surrounded by music, surfing the astral plane, spinning to the sounds of space.
The tribe I find there fills my heart with the gold of sunshine and fills my cup so full. May this season of love make your cup full to the point of overflowing."
Peace, Love & Chocolate,
Katrina
