230: Want S’more Mushrooms? Meet Mush-Melo

Ask Flora Funga Podcast anything OR Leave a Review In this episode of the Flora Funga Podcast, KK sits down with Brice Parker, founder of Mush-Melo, to explore how he turned the nostalgic experience of roasting marshmallows around a campfire into a creative way to enjoy functional mushrooms. Brice shares the inspiration behind Mush-melo, the challenges of formulating mushroom-infused marshmallows, and the brand’s three blends—including daytime marshmallows with lion’s mane and gotu kola, nighttime marshmallows with reishi and damiana, and a five-mushroom longevity blend featuring turkey tail, cordyceps, chaga, shiitake, and maitake. They also discuss clean ingredients, mushroom extracts, future seasonal flavors and marshmallow-based products, the importance of getting outside and connecting with nature, and Mush-Melo's efforts to give back through programs supporting forests and tree planting. Plus, Brice fires up an actual campfire during the interview and makes a functional mushroom s’more on camera—so this is definitely an episode worth watching on YouTube!
