Chocolate with Mushrooms are a natural pairing, as mushrooms have been used in ancient cultures for both their hallucinogenic properties and for health benefits. Combining these ingredients also taps into a trio of 2015 taste trends that are gaining popularity: umami, smoke and oak, and textured chocolate.
While these psychedelic edibles might seem less dangerous than other illegal drugs, consuming magic mushroom bars can still cause hallucinations and other unpleasant effects. Additionally, consuming these products regularly can lead to addiction, which requires professional treatment to overcome.
Chocolate with Mushrooms: A Delicious and Potent Way to Enjoy Psilocybin
Psychedelic mushrooms, or Psilocybin, can change your brain chemistry and alter your perception of reality. This can be dangerous and uncomfortable for some people, especially if you are in public places when these effects occur. If you have become dependent on mushrooms, it is important to seek help from a professional rehab center like Resurgence Behavioral Health. Treatment can help you put your drug use and dependence behind you, so you can live a full life without the need for substances.
A high-quality chocolate bar with a good cacao percentage (at least 70%) makes for a delicious base for your edibles. Add a small amount of mushroom powder, and mix thoroughly. Then, pour into molds and let it set.
You can use different shapes and sizes of chocolate molds to create unique mushroom-shaped treats. Once the chocolate has set, gently unmold it and store in a dark place.
Adding functional mushrooms to your chocolate enhances its health benefits and gives it added texture and flavor. Popular choices include Chaga, which has immune-boosting qualities, Turkey Tail, with its woody, vanilla-like flavor, and Lion’s Mane, with its prebiotic properties. You can also add a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds for extra crunch and flavor.
