Welcome to our website - Truffle.net, which is the main 'retail store' for our business. If you prefer to purchase or collect one of our products from our Wellington warehouse, or if you need to discuss some of our lines with us pre-purchase, you are most welcome to visit. Having said that, we are a very small business which can be exceptionally busy at times, so we prefer people to shop on-line....and you are already here!
Please take time to read our Payment and shipping info before signing up for our site.

Please note that I am a grumpy old cuss and that browsing, purely for the sake of it, is actively discouraged.
On the other hand, I happily give buyers as much of my time as they need, and all the product info they require.
It is not having browsers that enables me to do this! Buyers are always welcome.
