"Transformative Experience: A Review of the Pleiadean Moon Truffle"
I was swept away (from my body). The experience was extraordinary, brief but definitely intense, everything got dark (even if the morning light had already peeked through my curtains), as it was deep into the night, I felt like I was floating and I was pervaded by an intense sexual/sensual energy. I felt the presence of other people (as in spirit form) around me, and everything was deeply liberating…
Datura
Customers consistently report back positive, healing, and nurturing experiences with Datura. Datura serves as a pivotal ingredient in my handcrafted chocolate nightshade truffles. When indulging in these decadent treats, most individuals find themselves enveloped in Datura's boundless compassion, which she expresses through attentive listening and the ability to offer profound insights. This unique connection with Datura often leads to…
Ceremonial Tattoos and Piercings Using Truffles
I do not take the doing of such things lightly and I imagine many of you are the same so I thought I would share how I used a truffle to help me with the ceremonial part today. In a spot deep in my head I created my place of ceremony. I created a special altar especially for this occasion and kept working on it until it was just so. I got all of my supplies ready…
Walking in Two Worlds
the truffle is waiting for me to come back & I have gotten some of my deepest and most profound insights at times like this. Its a great way to sharpen your skills at being functional in two worlds at once.
Transformative Indulgence: Common Questions
which seems to put into question a lot of the information that is presently out there. I am so completely comfortable with the safety of what I am doing at this point, I rarely even think of it anymore. I think there are a lot of people that want to keep these plants in that dark space but there is so much more to them.

At Emporium Black, I am committed to weaving together the realms of gourmet indulgence with the profound depths of spiritual and occult practices.

Into The Liminal, Into The Ethers
These truffles are great for taking us to the liminal, to the Ethers, to the portals of both everything and nothingness. Whether you use them as a gateway to the unconscious or something more magical and/or esoteric…
Journey to Authenticity
I’ve been giving my transition a lot of thought lately. I started transitioning 8 years ago at age 50 & yes, along with having my kids, it’s hands down the best thing I’ve ever done. On honest reflection I…
Winter Lessons from These Plants
As I get my hour walk in this morning I can’t help but reflect on these plants I use in my truffles. I was thinking about how well Mandrake, Belladonna and Datura grow…
Making Choices
Greeting the day with my early morning walk, today in a cool sprinkle. Absolutely invigorating. I get in 4 to 5 miles a day and I like to get out there by 6:30 am. I feel it’s important for me to begin each day making this healthy choice. Watching the sky and the earth wake up with me each morning lends to a much more expansive outlook and that bigger view helps me stay more objective as I continue to make my choices throughout the day…
A Guide to Enjoying Chocolate Nightshade Truffles
Regardless of your experience ingesting various substances, you may be unsure how best to enjoy chocolate nightshade truffles. These creations utilize sacred plants to provide a gentle time of openness and emotional awareness. I’d love to share some tips and suggestions for enhancing this special encounter.
Forming Personal Relationships with the Plants
It can be cathartic to accept that these plants in our truffles really will form a relationship that is unique and special to each one of us as independent individuals. They aren't drugs or medications that are designed to affect everyone the same way. The plants in our truffles have so much more to offer and one of the greatest things that they do offer is their ability to recognize each person's needs and how best to help and heal each one of us based on each of our own particular strengths and weaknesses.
Q: Aren’t Nightshades Like Datura Dangerous? - A Talk About the Idea of Ingesting Nightshades (video)
In this video I tackle what might appear to be a relatively simple question to answer, "Aren’t nightshades like datura and belladonna supposed to be dangerous?" In answering I try to share additional information and personal experiences to help the viewer get a (hopefully) better understanding of why in fact the question is more complex than it looks. I believe these nightshades we use could be one of the next waves in our cultures' recent acceptance of the therapeutic applications of certain psychoactive compounds and I discuss how I feel this may relate to the initial question as well.
How They’re Made
Each one of our nightshade truffles is made with endless stages of intention thoughtfully worked into them. We grow most of our own plants and make all of our own oils, tinctures and brews. Each variety of truffle filling is handmade in small batches with hand chopped chocolate. Once cooled, the truffle filling is individually portioned by weight and then hand shaped…
Q: How long will the experience last?
Q: How long will the experience last? A: The most noticeable part of your experience will happen within the first hour and will continue to gently fade over the next five to six hours, though many customers report a feeling of well being and connectedness that stays with them for days, as well as restorative and healing sleep frequently colored by vivid dreams.
Q: Will I be impaired or heavily under the influence?
Q: Will I be impaired or heavily under the influence? A: Our truffles are created for gentle and subtle experiences when working with these sacred plants. Even as subtle as they may be, the first hour is when you’ll feel it at its strongest. We always recommend dedicating that time to listening and connecting with the plants and the truffles and save tasks like driving, etc…
Q: Will the truffles make me drowsy?
Q: Will the truffles make me drowsy?
A: The truffles do tend to slow people down and can have a calming and sedative quality. I think for many in today’s world who are used to pushing ourselves so hard, the plants in these truffles help us see just how exhausted we sometimes are and that maybe that is something we need to look at in order to take better care of ourselves.
Reverence for Our Inner Voice
For me, a big part of working with these nightshade truffles and these plants is learning to tune in and trust our own inner voice and the guidance we are given from the plants and any other guides that are reaching out to us rather than having someone else tell us what something is or how something should be done. So many people are reaching out to their ancestors and other spirits and this is such a great way to wean ourselves off of a dependence on a middleman or books that may of may not be correct in what they are telling us.
Gentle Expansion Without Being Altered
As far as a fear of being ‘altered’, I have grown to having a very strong aversion to being altered myself. I don't drink or smoke pot and haven't for years. I no longer have any interest in using any entheogen that would make me 'trip' no matter how spiritual it supposedly is. That’s a big part of why I do love these truffles and these plants (nightshades). They really are that gentle. The amount is much more than a
The Humm of the Plants
The other day I happened to find this huge Shiva Lingam stone at Goodwill and have spent an awful lot of time holding it in my hands pondering dualities and balance and the like. I marvel at how different the stone’s energy feels in my left hand compared to my right and with all of this I keep coming back to my truffles and these plants I am using in them.
I put a truffle in my left hand, then in my right expecting something similar, but it felt the same. I held the truffle gently with both hands and placed it in front of my heart and then in front of my forehead...
