Description
Fresh wild porcini mushrooms (Boletus edulis), also known as ceps, hand-picked in the forests of the Ukrainian Carpathians and supplied during the harvest season. Porcini cannot be cultivated, so availability follows nature — mushrooms are foraged, hand-selected and moved into the cold chain within hours of picking to preserve their firm, meaty texture, pale intact flesh and intense forest aroma. This is a seasonal, highly perishable product: we work to short lead times and chilled logistics so the mushrooms reach your kitchen or line at peak freshness. Depending on availability, fresh porcini are graded by size and quality — from premium whole caps for fine dining to sorting grades for further processing. Typical applications: restaurants and fine dining, fresh retail and specialist grocers, and processors making their own frozen, dried or preserved porcini. All mushrooms are hand-cleaned, sorted and checked for quality and foreign matter. Sourcing is traceable from forest to dispatch, and handling follows HACCP standards. Supplied in ventilated crates suited to fresh mushrooms, palletised and chilled for transport. Availability and minimum order are confirmed by season — please request current harvest status. Delivery to the EU on FCA or DAP terms, with full documentation.

FAQs
This premium Carpathian ingredient is available in industrial-grade fresh forms during peak harvest, or as premium Individually Quick Frozen (IQF) selections year-round. Depending on your manufacturing specifications, we can offer the product color-sorted, calibrated by millimeter size, or semi-processed to integrate seamlessly into automated food production lines, dairy manufacturing, or industrial baking applications.
Yes. While fresh, non-frozen batches are strictly tied to our seasonal harvesting calendar, our IQF (Individually Quick Frozen) fruit products are processed at peak nutritional maturity and stored in deep-freeze facilities. This advanced preservation enables us to guarantee a continuous, uninterrupted wholesale supply to our B2B partners 365 days a year, regardless of the crop's calendar season.
To preserve cell structure, flavor profile, and total food safety, strict cold-chain protocols must be followed. Fresh orders require immediate humidity-controlled refrigeration and rapid processing. Our IQF deep-frozen products must be maintained continuously at a stable temperature of -18°C or lower to prevent enzymatic degradation and clustering, ensuring full compliance with international HACCP safety guidelines.
The commercial shelf life depends entirely on the product form. Freshly harvested batches are highly perishable and require immediate food processing or distribution within a few days under refrigeration. Our IQF frozen items possess a robust shelf life of 12 to 24 months when held continuously at -18°C, retaining their natural color, structure, and microbiological stability.
