Our Story
The “Fun Guys” Behind Black Diamond Mushroom Chocolates
Meet Ryan Schuman, our co-founder, and a “fun guy” with an insatiable curiosity for biohacking, driven by a relentless passion for peak mind and body performance. Over the past seven years, Ryan Schuman headfirst into the world of health and wellness studying ingredients and superfoods like a culinary explorer on a quest for the golden grail of well-being.
One day, in the mystical realm of superfoods, Ryan discovered functional mushrooms. It was love at first sight, but with a caveat – they came in hard-to-swallow capsules, messy powders, or less-than-tasty tinctures. Ryan, however, wasn’t ready to accept this bitter pill, literally.
He knew there had to be a tastier path to harnessing the power of these magic mushrooms, and the answer was waiting right there in his kitchen.
An Idea is Born
Ryan, a busy father and entrepreneur, was rummaging through his kitchen cabinet one morning, late for his daily adventures. He yelled out, “Jes, where’s my Lion’s Mane?” She replied, “Behind my prenatal gummies!”
And there it was – Ryan’s light bulb moment. It was as if a giant neon sign flashed, ‘Mushroom Gummies!’ – so simple, yet revolutionary. It left him wondering – “Why hadn’t anyone cooked this up before?”
While there are a plethora of gummies on the market, from apple cider vinegar to sea moss, a crucial gap was waiting to be filled – none of them packed the power of functional mushrooms. Gummies that could make the magic of mushrooms fun, easy, and delicious? Now, who could resist that?
Driven by this vision, Ryan teamed up with his father, Stacy. The dynamic duo embarked on a mission to formulate the tastiest, most effective mushroom gummies.
Countless hours, numerous trials, and years of R&D later, they finally hit the sweet spot.
