Freshly unearthed truffles are carefully cleaned, graded, sealed, cold-packed and shipped across Australia via express post every week on Mondays and Tuesdays, delivered within 24 hours (Perth metro) or 48 hours (other capital cities).

Gavin Booth, owner of family business Australian Truffle Traders, said that the online shop makes it easy for customers.

“We’ve always sold to customers direct from our farm but now they can order online any time of day or night with just a few clicks – it’s something our customers have been asking for that we’re delighted to deliver,” Gavin said.

The good news continues for home cooks in Perth because fresh truffle will be available European Foods Marketplace in Osborne Park from 18th June. Australian Truffle Traders are the exclusive supplier and shoppers can browse the freshly unearthed nuggets of black gold on display inside the stunning Cheese Cathedral.

For an unforgettable truffle experience, there’s nothing like hunting them for yourself. Visit the truffière in Manjimup, follow trained truffle dogs Molly, Gidgee or Max as they nose out the ripest of fresh truffles and discover the famous allure for yourself. Truffle Hunts through the hazelnut and oak orchards at Australian Truffle Traders take place every Saturday and Sunday at 10am and during the week by appointment – for bookings click here. ($60, 2-3 hours)

Teaming up with the West Australian Good Food Guide (WAGFG) for the ‘Truffles Unearthed’ series, Australian Truffle Traders will supply WAGFG 2019 restaurant of the year, Santini Bar & Grill (Perth) two kilos of truffle for a decadent truffle-laden dinner in partnership with Leeuwin Estate on Wednesday 17th June. Tickets are available here.

“We want to make truffles accessible to everyone,” said Gavin, one of the founders of revered annual festival Truffle Kerfuffle, which was cancelled this year due to coronavirus.

“That’s the reason I championed the name Truffle Kerfuffle for the festival – truffles, while alluring and decadent, should be enjoyed by everyone and not just a select few.

“Now with our online shop and the retail space at European Foods, more people can access more truffle, and that makes me happy.”
