Buying Alba white truffles? Confirm the current lot’s harvest origin with our team. The product name identifies the truffle species; the origin of your order is a separate detail to check before purchase.
Choose your pack and grade: select the available weight and class in the product selector. Availability and price apply to the selected combination. Pack weight is the total ordered weight, not the weight of a single truffle; the number and size of pieces vary by grade and lot. For a large whole white truffle to shave tableside, ask the Trade Desk for a specific piece weight and include your service date. Our Rare Finds gallery shows individual specimens and their recorded weights.

How to use fresh white truffles
Shave Tuber magnatum thinly over a warm finished dish immediately before serving. Classic pairings include buttered pasta, risotto, eggs, potatoes, polenta and mild cheese. Avoid prolonged cooking because heat quickly reduces the volatile aroma.
Storage
Keep refrigerated at 2–4°C (35–39°F), wrapped in clean, dry paper towel inside a sealed container. Replace the paper daily and clean the truffle only immediately before use. For the strongest aroma, use as soon as possible after delivery.
Season and availability
Plan a fresh white truffle menu for autumn or early winter. In Piedmont, the harvest window for Tuber magnatum runs from October 1 through January 31. Other regions follow their own calendars.
