What is the best way to take shrooms? With chocolate & here’s why.

Many people don’t love the taste of mushrooms. Because of this there are as many ways to take shrooms, as you can dream up. Humans have even gone as far as drinking reindeer piss after the reindeer eats and expels fresh Amanita Mascara Mushrooms, (those are the big red ones with white spots).

People also make tea, but in our opinion it just extends the mushroomy taste. Even mixed with Mint Tea and honey for flavour, you can still taste that earthy mushroom flavour underneath.

Our personal favourite way to eat shrooms is in delicious, high quality, organic chocolate. Instead of making your mushrooms taste unimaginably worse by adding a wild animal’s urine to the process, Mystical Creations has mastered the fine art of high quality chocolate infusions.

Reindeer piss? Or Shroom Infused Strawberry Flavored Marshmallows covered in shroom infused Milk or Dark Chocolate? You decide;)

Now Dried Mushrooms are great too…

But they don’t taste particularly good.

I won’t say they taste bad – because I stock my shelves with them, but a vocal minority of magic mushroom lovers will have their mouths dried out with loud sloppy half chewed mushroom paste while they tell you how bad it tastes, and how it might make them puke… They may even gag.

Does bad flavour stop them from eating shrooms?

No, and especially now that there’s an entire industry of Shroom Infused Chocolate Edibles in Canada,

Here is why infusing chocolate with magic mushrooms THE BEST way to eat them.

From ancient Greece to Mesoamerica, mushrooms have influenced the course of our evolution and played a key role in our culture.Psilocybin with cacao.

1) The combination of magic mushrooms and chocolate share a long history and tradition.

Traditionally used in ceremonies with larger dose journeys, we like to propose this combination for microdosing too. Separately chocolate and microdosing are used for a healthy and positive lifestyle, together they give more depth. Chocolate is not a psychedelic, but it does have a psychoactive effect as a mood enhancer and connecting us to our heart-centre. It also has one of the highest concentrations of antioxidants, is rich in minerals and the active compound theobromine is a mild stimulant. Making it a healthy food source with a subtle but profound effect.

The Aztecs called the sMagic mushrooms teonanacátl (flesh of the gods). Chocolate is from Cacao, and Cacao’s official name is theobroma cacao (food of the gods). A powerful combination increasing the effect where the mushroom opens the mind and Chocolate opens the heart.

2) Chocolate increases the effect of psilocybin.

It contains MAO-inhibitors that prevent the breakdown and modulate neurotransmitters like serotonin. Your sweet spot dose might be a little lower than usual.

2) Another benefit of using Chocolate with a microdose is that it helps your body to uptake active components.

In the end it’s not only what you consume into your body, but what your body can uptake and process. The natural fats present in Chocolate and increased blood flow help. Your can eat pure cacao paste, but our preference is to make a Shroom Infusion in your Chocolate. Honouring both the mushroom and Chocolate as teachers supporting us in living our potential. For many a Chocolate Covered Shroom Infused Marshmallow is a delicious (and very welcome) combination when chewing mushrooms.

3) Psilocybin Edibles (shrooms with chocolate) are more digestible by your stomach and your gut.

When you directly ingest raw Magic Mushrooms, you might experience some stomach pain and sickness. Psilocybin Edibles are much easier to digest and they are not as hard on your gut and stomach. No more nausea, muscle aches, cramping, diarrhea, or headaches. Besides, they taste much better.

4) Mushrooms in chocolate (and marshmallow) are fast-acting & stimulate a speedy recovery.

The onset time for Psilocybin Edibles tends to be within 30-45 minutes generally. You are also more likely to experience a more mellow comedown and feel less sick from consuming edibles. If you feel like it’s taking too long for the effects to kick-in, a great tip is to leave the edible in your mouth (works for both chocolates and gummies) and not swallow it for a few minutes. This works by allowing the Psilocybin to enter your body through one of its most absorbent spots (tongue and mouth), reducing the onset of the effects.

5) You can control the length and intensity of your trip.

Psilocybin Edibles last half as long as regular Magic Mushrooms. The onset time is also shorter, making it easier to control the length and intensity of your trip.

6) Psilocybin Edibles are easier to microdose.

Microdosing has seen a rising in popularity over the past couple of years, which led to people experimenting with different ways of consuming them. Since the majority of Psilocybin Edibles contain 1g of dried mushrooms, it’s easier to control the dose appropriately. At Origin, for example, we offer Gummies and Chocolate bars that are easy to dose accordingly. The chocolates, for instance, contain 3.5g of dried mushrooms in 6 squares, giving approximately 0.58g in each one if they are split. Usually, it’s recommended to microdose every 3 days starting from 0.25g and going up according to your personal tolerance. The dosage is a big factor for medical patients and recreational consumers looking to get exactly what they want from Psilocybin.

So why is it that we only stock Mystical Creations Magic Mushroom Edibles?

They are way better for dose, because the kitchen has used an industrial mixing machine in their catering kitchen. The siblings that invent these unique Canadian Shroom Infusions have created restaurants, cafe’s, bakeries and catering establishments since 2000, so that’s 20 years of experience in creating popular recipes The quality of their THC and Magic Mushroom infused edibles is far higher than anything we’ve tried on the market. Really. Some edible shrooms we have tried are simply not tasty: Fucked up oxidized chocolate from creating too large of a batch of treats and then spending the rest of their time trying to sell it, rather than developing a consistent routine that adapts to demand. Uneven (and quite frankly lazy) psilocybin distribution in their products, and – more often than not, they just don’t taste like a high end confectionary. Plus: Mystical Creations has a Cartoon, where cute little creatures eat magic mushroom infused edibles (or cannabis infused edibles) and go on magical adventures. Who doesn’t like that? Click here to see the Mystical Creations Cartoon on Instagram) So on top of newly invented and unique infused edibles, 5 (or 6) Flavors of Mushroom Infused Marshmallow, Technicoloured Chocolate Covered Microdose Almonds, THC infused Candied Pecans, THC Chocolate Almonds, and a fucking Cartoon that is reminiscent of South Park and Charlie The Unicorn Goes To Candy Mountain, Mystical Creations is planning on releasing NFT’s and has some of the art and utility mapped out. There is no other Canadian Edibles Company like Mystical Creations That’s why we carry them.
