Product Description
The Walnut and Truffle Cream by La Rocca is an exquisite blend of walnuts, champignons, and black summer truffle (Tuber aestivum Vitt.), enhanced with high-quality extra virgin olive oil. This creamy specialty is characterized by its light texture and balanced flavor, making it a versatile companion in the kitchen.
Compared to a classic walnut-truffle sauce, this cream contains a lower truffle content, making it a lighter product for everyday use. It is made without preservatives and brings the authentic taste of Italy straight to your table.

- Black Summer Truffle (Tuber aestivum Vitt.) (min. 5%): Adds an intense and luxurious aroma to the cream.
- Salt: Balances the flavors perfectly.

The ingredient list highlights that no preservatives are used. This product is a pure natural creation that meets the highest quality standards.
