Mushroom blend chocolates are one of the newest things on our shelves. If you've seen the Seshnz boxes with the roses and marble statues and wondered what's inside, this guide covers the basics: what the blend is, how it's different from mushroom coffee, and how to try it for the first time.
What Is Seshnz?
Seshnz is a mushroom blend brand that makes its chocolates in house, in small batches, in Los Angeles. Here is the lineup:
- Mushroom Blend Chocolate in Peanut Butter & Jelly, Cookies & Cream, and Dark Chocolate Salted Cashew
- Dubai Dark Chocolate, a dark chocolate and pistachio bar inspired by knafeh
- Golden Kiwi Mushroom Blend Gummies, 10 gummies per bag

What's in the Mushroom Blend?
The Seshnz blend is made from organic mushrooms that have been part of teas and cooking for centuries:
| Mushroom | What it is |
|---|---|
| Lion's Mane | A white, shaggy mushroom with a long history in East Asian cooking and teas |
| Turkey Tail | A fan-shaped mushroom with banded colors, traditionally brewed as a tea |
| Reishi | A glossy, red-brown mushroom that has been steeped into teas for centuries |
| Cordyceps | A mushroom traditionally gathered in the mountains of Asia for teas and broths |
| Chaga | A dark mushroom that grows on birch trees, traditionally brewed as a tea |
These are functional mushrooms, the same kinds you'll find in mushroom coffees and teas.
Functional vs. Experiential Mushrooms
You'll hear mushroom products described two ways. Functional mushroom products, like mushroom coffee or daily capsules, use a small amount of mushroom extract as part of a routine. Experiential products like Seshnz pack a much larger amount of mushroom blend into each bar or gummy, which is why the amounts on the box are listed in grams. Each Seshnz bar contains 10 grams (10,000mg) of blend, and each gummy contains 500mg.
That difference is the main reason to take your time with your first one.
Start Low, Go Slow
Start low, go slow. The serving size is printed on every package, and everyone responds differently.
Edibles pass through digestion first, so give it time. Wait at least 2 hours before having more.
A few other tips for a first try:
- Try it on a day with nothing else planned, somewhere you're comfortable.
- Don't mix it with alcohol or other products on your first try.
- Store bars in a cool, dry place so the chocolate holds its shape, and keep the gummy bag sealed. Keep both out of reach of children and pets.
Which Flavor Should I Pick?
- Peanut Butter & Jelly: milk chocolate with peanut butter morsels and grape jelly candy
- Cookies & Cream: white chocolate with crunchy cookie pieces
- Dark Chocolate Salted Cashew: dark chocolate with roasted cashews and sea salt, and gluten-free
- Dubai Dark Chocolate: rich dark chocolate with pistachio, inspired by knafeh
- Golden Kiwi Gummies: a bright, tropical gummy for anyone who'd rather skip chocolate
Allergens: the bars contain milk and soy, and some contain peanuts, tree nuts or sesame. Full ingredients and allergens are listed on each product page.
