Black Truffle Extract is a concentrated compound of the fruiting bodies of black truffles, usually of species of Tuber that were grown or harvested under controlled conditions. Normal water or waterethanol extraction processes are usually used to produce the extract, which is then filtered, concentrated, and dried by spray, so that the extract does not lose its characteristic compounds, though at the same time, the quality of the extract is uniform. The resultant product ends up being a fine powder of brown to dark brown colour and a uniform and free-flowing texture that can be industrially formulated. Its major active constituents are the naturally occurring polysaccharides, amino acids, organic acids, and unique aromatic compounds, which are the contributor of its functional and sensory profile. Functionally, it can be perceived as a high-value mushroom-derived ingredient that increases the complexity of formulations, contributes to truffle-related attributes, and allows taking a clean-label stance. It is also used extensively in functional foods, gourmet food goods, raw materials in dietary supplements, flavor and ingredient development, and the formulations of cosmetic or personal care, where the ingredients can be used due to their natural source and marketability.
