Tsamba (aka Tsampa) — the first food of the Tibetans
Tsamba has sustained Tibetans for over a thousand years. Tsampa refers to roast whole-grain Tibetan barley flour. We use the heirloom Tibetan Purple Karma Barley variety, now grown in the USA.
Unique in character – purplish color (a type of antioxidant), Purple Karma Barley is superbly high in fiber, protein, vitamins, and minerals and has a low glycemic index (30).
A unique combination of organic Tsamba, cacao powder, 80% dark chocolate, cacao nibs, and natural dates creates a nutty, toasty flavor profile with rich dark chocolate notes and a subtle coffee undertone, along with a satisfying crunch.
These Tsamba Truffles are ideal for a healthy and convenient breakfast, snack, or dessert option.

I love these tsampa truffles! They are a little sweet, just the right amount, not too much. If I need a quick portable lunch, I grab one of these, wrap it in a bit of wax paper and put it in my jacket pocket. Add a big handful of some raw veggies and I'm in good shape for the afternoon. But my favorite way to eat them is nibbling one with a mug of hot tea :)
These truffles are just delightful. And they're healthy! They very filling and I find a have a nice energy burst after eating them.
My friend gifted me a bag of these truffles when I gave birth. After demolishing that, I immediately ordered 2 more bags. They’re that good. Not too sweet, dark, chocolatey, coffee-esque. And filling. I love them.
We received both the truffles and hazelnut Tsamba balls. Such a great way to get protein and fiber and with great taste! I added some powdered sugar directly inside the bag, shook it around, and now I have an even better treat. But that's just me. They are fine as is.
