What is Davy's Garnishing Paste?
Davy's Garnishing Paste is the world's leading truffle substitute for professional catering and fine dining. Developed by Boom Fine Food in the Netherlands and refined over more than three decades, it delivers the rich, earthy character of black truffle at a fraction of the cost — without compromising on quality or consistency.
The paste is used for garnishing pâtés, terrines, galantines, foie gras, and any cold buffet preparation where the distinctive black-on-cream visual contrast of truffle is desired. Its unique non-bleeding formula ensures that the paste retains its deep colour even after slicing, extended display on a buffet, or exposure to warmth.
"Non-bleeding formula blends seamlessly at any temperature — in hot kitchens, cold prep rooms, and on buffet service."
