Where it comes from
White truffle (Tuber magnatum) is the underground fruiting body of a rare fungus that grows in symbiosis with the roots of certain hardwood trees, primarily in the Piedmont region of Italy. It is carefully foraged rather than farmed and the extract used in cosmetics is obtained from this prized natural source.
