BERKSHIRE FOOD NEWS: Spotlight on Truffles by Tarah in downtown Pittsfield

Pittsfield— A new chocolate shop, Truffles by Tarah, has opened in downtown Pittsfield at 123 North Street, enriching the area’s culinary offerings. As its name suggests, the shop focuses on truffles, but it also carries chocolate lollipops, bars, and other treats. Truffle flavors range from dark chocolate mousse, salted caramel, and maple pecan to elderberry, mulled cider, blueberry cheesecake, and Earl Grey coffee break. “Truffles are my passion, and that is what my main emphasis is,” said owner Tarah Warner, a professional chocolatier. “But I have other goodies and will be expanding the selection over time,” including specialty products for the holidays. Local sourcing shapes both Warner’s “small-batch chocolates” and the shop’s displays. Ingredients include extracts from Charles H. Baldwin & Sons of West Stockbridge, spirits from Berkshire Mountain Distillers of Sheffield, dairy products from High Lawn Farm of Lee, and jellies from Berkshire Wine Jelly of Lenox.
