Salted Caramel Pumpkin Truffles Recipe

Pumpkin spice truffles that support your cycle and taste like fall in every bite!

Pumpkin season just got a delicious upgrade! These Salted Caramel Pumpkin Truffles bring together cozy fall flavors with the nourishing benefits of seed cycling.

Why seed cycling?

Our bodies naturally go through hormonal shifts each month, and each phase of your cycle benefits from specific nutrients to support a healthier cycle. By incorporating targeted seeds during different phases, seed cycling can be a natural way to align your nutrition with your cycle.

Even if you don’t have a cycle or are currently in menopause, seed cycling is still a great way to give your hormones a little extra love using the power of food! 


Phase 1 seeds

In the follicular phase, flax and pumpkin seeds provide important nutrients like lignans and zinc. Lignans in flax seeds can help promote balanced estrogen levels, while the zinc in pumpkin seeds support hormone production and menstrual regularity. Together, they’re a gentle way to support your body as it builds toward ovulation.

Phase 2 seeds

During the luteal phase, sesame and sunflower seeds are rich in nutrients that help keep progesterone levels steady, which is essential for mood and relaxation. Magnesium and vitamin E in these seeds also offer benefits like easing PMS symptoms and promoting restful sleep.

We’ve made it easy to start seed cycling with our organic, ready-to-consume blends available here.

With these truffles, you get the perfect balance of seasonal flavors and cycle-supportive nutrition.
