Tartufo: Italian for "truffle." (Not to be confused with “Tartufo” on a dessert menu, which is a ball of vanilla ice cream covered in chocolate.)

Chocolate Truffles: The sweet, decadent, chocolatey cousin of fungus truffles.

Gleba: The truffle “meat,” a.k.a. the delicious part you eat.

Truffle Peelings: The shaved outside layer of truffles. Much cheaper than their whole counterparts — good for enjoying truffs on a budget.

Truffle Cheese: Goat or cow’s milk cheese with specks of white or black truffle.
