Behind The Truffle Masters

Diane Roederer

Founder and CEO of DR Delicacy and The Truffle Masters

In 2014, Diane hunted for truffles on an expedition in Spain. That was when she decided, officially, that this would be her next venture. Returning to Texas, she greeted several chefs by asking them to open a sizable box filled with truffles. As the smell of glorious truffles entered their senses, strong culinary bonds were forged and Diane was coined 'The Truffle Lady.'

In 2015, Diane launched The Truffle Masters as an annual celebration of one of the world’s oldest and most precious delicacies, first-rate truffles, showcased by the top talent in Houston’s restaurant community. Its mission is to unite local gourmands around DR Delicacy's love for truffles and give back to the community that’s continued to support year after year.

Today, Diane is well on her way to creating an empire of delicacies. She enjoys seeking out the best of the best and providing top shelf ingredients to chefs in the process.
