Did you know that most truffle-flavored products on the market (like truffle oil, chips, fries, and seasonings) don’t actually contain real truffles?
Scientific analysis of commercial truffle oils shows that many are flavored using lab-created compounds rather than true truffle aroma. These products contain volatile chemicals designed to mimic one part of the truffle scent.
Real truffles contain hundreds of naturally occurring compounds that work together to create their signature aroma, something a single synthetic chemical simply can’t recreate.

Want authentic truffle flavor? Skip the synthetic stuff and choose real truffles then shave them fresh over your dish for true depth of flavor and natural nutrients.
