Magic mushroom chocolate and psilocybin candy recipes (2024)

Magic Shroom Chocolate

This option of taking magic mushrooms especially appeal to those who don't like shroom taste and aroma. Chocolate masks it perfectly!

Moreover, chocolate (especially dark chocolate, 70% of cocoa and higher) has some additional benefits as the delivery system for psilocybin; it contains plant chemicals called flavanols (help to protect the heart), caffeine and magnesium (stimulate nervous system and improve cognitive function) and rich in antioxidants.

You can use shroom sweets for psychedelic mushroom trip and microdosing.

It’s super easy to prepare a mushroom chocolate bar or homemade shroom candies.

5 reasons you should make shroom chocolate at home

Making your own shroom chocolate with your home grown shrooms is a great way to make sure you have total control over its quality.

  1. The quality of magic mushrooms. As a mushroom cultivator you know everything about the quality of mushrooms you are going to add into chocolate: growing conditions, possible contaminations and diseases during the growing cycle, the quality of harvested mushrooms, how they were dried, storage conditions and how long they were stored before adding to chocolate.
  2. Dosage. You can add any amount of dried magic mushrooms in chocolate bar and be sure about the dosage you take. It is extremely important for conscious microdosing course and tripping as well.
  3. Type and amount of sugar. You can replace sugar with honey or syrup; make a low-carb chocolate with stevia; sugar-free chocolate with allulose sweetener or sea salt.
  4. Customize with your favourite add-ins. Play with different tastes, the possibilities abound! dried fruits: freeze-dried strawberries, crushed banana chips, dried blueberries, candied fruits, coconut flasks; seeds: sesame, chia, hemp; spices: cinnamon, cardamom, vanilla, peppermint extract, a pinch of cayenne, coffee, sea salt; nuts: crushed pecans, pistachios, almonds, walnuts, peanuts or peanut butter.
  5. Vegan, dairy free, additives and allergens free. Remove/replace any ingredient according to your personal diet and preferences. Create premium chocolate with high quality ingredients.

How to prepare magic mushrooms for shroom chocolate

The following steps apply to any mushroom chocolate recipe.

Step 1. Dry magic mushrooms.

The best way to dry shrooms is dehydrator (Amazon). Set the temperature 95-122°F or +35°..+50°C. Drying time depends the weight of mushrooms and temperature (from 5 to 16 hours).

Properly dried shrooms should crisp like chips and have minimal color changes (not burned black!)

You can also dry shrooms with fan, heat fan, on radiator or in the oven (low heat mode).

Step 2. Weigh the necessary amount of dry shrooms.

Use high precision gram scale, jewellery or medical scales (Amazon).

Weight of mushrooms is up to you. It is based on your goals (for tripping or microdosing).

For instance, for microdosing add 3 grams of dried mushrooms. Mixed them with chocolate, poured it into an ice cube tray (10 cells), so that on average each chocolate cube = 0.3g of mushrooms, which is average microdose.

For tripping you can add 10 grams of of dried mushrooms. Poured chocolate into an ice tray/mold (10 cells), so that on average each chocolate candy = 1g of mushrooms. You can add less or more, depends on your individual microdose or tripping dose.

Step 3. Turn dry mushrooms into a powder in a coffee grinder (Amazon)

Now your mushroom powder ready to use for any shroom chocolate recipe!

Simple recipe of shroom chocolate

Ingredients
  1. Dry magic mushrooms (follow Mushroom Growing Guide to grow your own shrooms)
  2. Your favourite chocolate bar (Amazon). I prefer dark chocolate 70% of cocoa and higher. It lasts longer and higher in flavanols; though keep in mind the higher% of cocoa, the greater the bitter flavor.
Equipment
  1. Gram scales
  2. Coffee grinder
  3. Ice tray or silicone chocolate/baking mold (Amazon)
  4. Cup or mug
  5. Saucepan
  6. Tablespoon
  7. Stove
Shroom chocolate cooking
  1. Weigh the necessary amount of dry mushrooms and grind them in a in a coffee grinder.
  2. Melt chocolate over a double boiler. Break the chocolate bar into small pieces. Put it in a cup. Fill the saucepan with some water (about 1-2 inches) and put the cup in it. Turn on the stove top and bring the water to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat. In this way chocolate melts slowly and won't scorching. Melt slowly and stir continually. This may be done on a stove top on low heat or in a microwave oven on 50% power.
  3. Add mushroom powder in a melted chocolate. Mix thoroughly.

    Don't afraid to add shroom powder in warm chocolate, shrooms won't lose their potency. Usually I put shrooms when chocolate is around 60-70C or 140-160F

  4. Pour chocolate evenly into the ice tray or silicone chocolate mold. Try to do it fast, because chocolate hardens quickly.
  5. Let the magic sweets harden for 1-2 hours in the fridge or 20-30 minutes in the freezer.
  6. Release chocolate bar/shapes from the ice tray/mold. Ready!
How and how long to store shroom chocolate

Store this shroom chocolate in a cool dry place (60-70F or 15-20C) in a tightly sealed food container.

Storing in refrigerator or freezer can promote the chocolate to “bloom,” a whitish coating caused by sugar rising to the surface due to excess moisture. It does not affect the flavor or quality, but does not look appealing. However while storing in freezer you can be sure that shroom chocolates are good.

Such pure dark chocolate lasts longer, than milk chocolate and homemade chocolate with additional ingredients (milk, milk butter, nuts, seeds etc).

If stored in freezer dark shroom chocolate lasts up to two years. Maybe longer, but I haven't been storing shroom sweets for longer than 2 years. Anyway, I know for sure from personal experience, that chocolates were good and shrooms didn't lose their potency for this time.

  3. Milk butter or cocoa butter or coconut oil — 50-70 grams.
  4. Wheat flour — 2 teaspoons.

Total: ~200 grams of mushroom chocolate

Equipment

  2. Coffee grinder.
  3. Ice tray or silicone chocolate/bakery mold
  4. Saucepan
  5. Stir spoon
  6. Stove
Mushroom chocolate cooking

Step 1. Melt the butter on the lowest heat or use a double boiler method.

Step 2. Add wheat flour to the melted butter. Stir it. Then add honey or sugar/stevia/sweetener. The saucepan should just barely warm up. The temperature of the ingredients up to +70°C or 160°F (this is because I use honey and high temperature bad for honey).


Step 3. While stirring, slowly pour the milk and mix thoroughly. You may use milk powder or vegan milk as well (e.g. coconut/almond/soy milk)


Step 4. While stirring all the ingredients slowly add the cocoa/cacao powder. Stir until a smooth mass is formed.


Step 5. Add dried psilocybin mushrooms Psilocybe Cubensis. Mushrooms should be grinded into a powder (i.g. with coffee grinder). The weight of the mushrooms is up to you. This mixture can easily consist of 3-4 grams (for micro doses) or 10-20 grams (for trip doses). Stir thoroughly!


Step 6. Prepare ice tray or any molds you have at home (silicone chocolate or bakery molds).


Step 7. Pour prepared mushroom chocolate into ice tray/chocolate mold. Then put it in the fridge and let your chocolates harden for 1-2 hours; in freezer for 20-30 mins.

Step 7. Remove chocolate molds from the fridge. Take out chocolate candies. The chocolate will be soft a little - this is normal. You can roll the chocolates in sesame seeds, chopped walnuts or cocoa powder. The magic chocolate box is ready!

Here are 200 grams of chocolate = 20 sweets which contain 3 grams of dried mushrooms = 0.15g of shrooms per 1 sweet.

If you divide your chocolate into 20 sweets with 20 grams of dry mushrooms = 1g of shrooms per 1 sweet.

Storage instructions

This recipe includes such ingredients as butter and milk that can't last for a long time. Store this shroom candies in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 weeks or in the freezer up to 6 months.
