Truffle Gift Set - Luxury Black Truffle Hamper

A generous black truffle gift hamper with six specialities to cook, share and enjoy: an impressive present for truffle lovers and adventurous home cooks.

What Is in the Black Truffle Gift Hamper?

This luxury truffle gift set brings together six Monika’s Kitchen favourites, from ready-sliced truffle and finishing oil to egg-rich pasta, pesto, seasoning and whole truffles. Every product is made with black summer truffle, Tuber aestivum, in a format suited to a different occasion.

It makes an elegant truffle meal at home easy to create, while leaving plenty to enjoy on crostini, with cheese or as a finishing touch to everyday dishes. Beautifully presented in a gift box, it is a thoughtful choice for birthdays, dinner-party hosts, anniversaries, corporate gifting or anyone who enjoys cooking with distinctive gourmet ingredients.

What Is Included?

• Black Truffle Oil 100ml – extra-virgin olive oil with black summer truffle. Drizzle it over pasta, risotto, eggs, pizza or roast potatoes just before serving.
• Black Truffle Carpaccio 50g – fine, tender slices of black summer truffle preserved in cold-pressed grapeseed oil, ready to arrange over warm food without slicing or shaving.
• Black Truffle Pasta 250g – broad, egg-rich pappardelle made with free-range eggs and real black summer truffle for a simple but special supper.
• Black Truffle Pesto 150g – a spoonable savoury pesto of truffle, mushrooms, black olives and extra-virgin olive oil, delicious with pasta, eggs, chicken or crostini.
• Black Truffle Seasoning 60g – a finely milled truffle dust for chips, popcorn, eggs, steak, pasta and roast vegetables.
• Whole Black Truffle 40g – whole black summer truffles in a jar, ready to grate, shave or finely slice over elegant savoury dishes.

How to Enjoy the Hamper

This hamper offers enough variety for an easy truffle supper and several smaller occasions. Spread a little pesto over warm crostini to serve with drinks, or use the seasoning to finish buttered popcorn. For the main course, cook the truffle pasta and finish it with your choice of pesto, oil, carpaccio or finely grated whole truffle.

The remaining specialities are just as useful afterwards: dust seasoning over hot chips, stir pesto through scrambled eggs, or add truffle slices to risotto, roast chicken, steak or creamy mashed potato.

A Simple Truffle Supper for Two

Cook the truffle pasta until al dente and reserve a cup of the cooking water. Toss the pasta with a spoonful of truffle pesto, a knob of butter, Parmesan and enough pasta water to make a glossy sauce. Divide between warm bowls, then finish with a few truffle slices or drops of truffle oil and freshly ground black pepper.

Where Do the Truffles Come From?

This hamper brings together products from the Monika’s Kitchen black truffle range, selected by Monika for their flavour, practicality and ability to make truffle enjoyable in a home kitchen.

The black summer truffles used in these specialities are Jászsági nyári szarvasgomba, or Jászság summer truffles, from Hungary’s Jászság region. This regional ingredient holds EU Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status, recognising the connection between its origin, reputation and distinctive character.

Specialist producers work with truffle hunters led by István Bagi, an experienced Hungarian truffle expert with deep knowledge of cultivation, seasonal conditions and truffle-growing landscapes. Trained dogs locate the underground truffles by scent; the hunting teams include rescue dogs trained through a specialist animal charity.
