Welcome to the Lagoon!

Gowanus Goo, named after the beloved canal that is crawling with unimaginable horrors, has been serving the community with truffles since September of 2025. Can now be found monthly at Root Hill Cafe. The truffle flavors are taking a turn for the unique.

February had Ultimate Dark Chocolate, a flavor made with cocoa nibs that were hand-harvested, fermented, and roasted by yours truly. The other was Strawberry Dipped Milk Chocolate, made and rolled in organic strawberry powder.

March had Sentinel Bourbon, made with Whiskey Del Bac's Sentinel of the Desert Bourbon, and Prickly Pear (both flavors were inspired by my travels out west to Arizona).

And now onto April! We'll have Tiramisu; made with coffee beans from Ombre Coffee in Tucson, and Sentinel Rye Mesquite Bean: made with Whiskey Del Bac's Sentinel of the Desert Rye and Casa de Mesquite's mesquite bean powder. This continues the cactus train I've been riding since late February.

Hurry soon before Root Hill sells out again this month. Please enjoy my desert-induced chocolate visions. Boxes of four huge truffles are $12.

Sincerely,

Bella
