Details
Elephant Clay is a classic Indian raw clay celebrated for its bold, cementy flavour and hearty bite. Supplied in large, varied chunks that resemble pale elephant skin, this clay offers a dry, medium crunch that breaks down into a smooth, paste-like texture when chewed. The pieces are firm but approachable, sometimes sticking slightly, yet always clean and grit-free.
The taste is unmistakably cementy and dusty, with layers of fresh water tones, faint metallic hints, and a damp basement aroma when wet. It’s earthy, bold, and satisfyingly mineral — a favourite for those who enjoy strong raw clay notes without creaminess. Elephant Clay pairs especially well with Mexican clay pots, creating a rich and complementary geophagy experience.

Materials + Care
To keep your clays and treats fresh, crunchy, and full of flavour, always store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place away from moisture and strong odours. We recommend using the stash boxes available on our website, which are designed to keep your items neatly organised and protected. Avoid handling the clays with wet hands, and use the wooden spoon included with your order for a cleaner, more luxurious experience. If your treats come in resealable packaging, be sure to press the seal firmly closed after each use. Proper care will help preserve texture, taste, and crunch for maximum enjoyment.
