We’re Emilie and Erika, best friends who have traveled the world together. We miss travel like crazy, and created TROVE, an original travel subscription box, to bring authentic cultural experiences from around the world to your home while supporting small businesses worldwide.
Each TROVE box features a new city, and includes LIVE online experiences hosted by local experts and regional ingredients, snacks, and other goodies to bring the sights, tastes, and sounds of a city to your doorstep.
Come explore the world with us, and support the local gems and cultural ambassadors who make our travels so special.
xoxo
Emilie & Erika, Founders of TROVE
Next stop: Mexico City, Mexico
This Fall, we are headed to Mexico City to celebrate Día de los Muertos, a celebration of life and death. Learn how to make traditional red mole, handmade tortillas, and hot chocolate, with Chef Graciela, as she shares more about this special day. Then paint a Frida Kahlo-style portrait with Artist Sofía to honor a loved one.
Meet your Chef: Graciela Montaño
Chef Graciela is a female powerhouse! She founded Aura Mexicana Cocina and Aura house to share authentic Mexican Cuisine and Culture with others and has a popular weekly TV Show, Tu Cocina! which started in 2013. We love her passion and the unmistakable gift she has for weaving food and culture together.
Meet your Artist: Sofía García
Sofía is an artist and teacher who teaches art in many studios around Mexico City. She studied Textile Design and specialized in Art, and has been painting with watercolors, oils, and acrylics for more than 10 years. She cannot wait to paint with you and share more about the legendary Frida Kahlo.

What our customers are saying
The quality of this Smoked Shoyu is unmatched and the craftsmanship - speechless!
We received our NEW TROVE aprons, one in each color, for myself and my husband. It is easy to tell that the attention to detail, the quality in fabric, the great sized pockets, the adjustable neck, the long ties and the beautiful gold metal accents on the neck buckle and the pen/note pocket make these the most comfortable and beautiful aprons I have ever owned. We feel so classy! A great collaboration with ThreeTwoOne! Thank you TROVE for offering us the ability to virtually travel, experience exciting cuisines by incredible chefs, learning a bit about the culture of the featured artists, and for your undying support of other small and women-owned businesses! We just love it all - and we will look so much better on our next adventure!
I have purchased two boxes, one of which was Chiang Mai. I have been there, and I took a cooking class there that included Khao Soi. I even went to an elephant sanctuary while there. All that, and I still got the box. I could not have been more pleased. It was a fantastic experience and brought back wonderful memories. Additionally, when I had a small issue, the response was immediate, and the issue was addressed promptly, making it clear that the box owners care very much about their product and their customers. I highly recommend this box!
My 29 year old daughter, Jessica, bought a TROVE box for me for my 60th birthday. We unfortunately missed the live event but had a blast together anyway preparing it via the recorded version (which probably worked out even better since we could rewind when we missed hearing something). All except the tomatoes came out beautifully. I realize in retrospect, we should not have stirred the sugar so it crystalized…
This was our second Trove Box and our first "visit" to Bordeaux France. What a great experience! It is so much fun to open our box and see what goodies are awaiting us! Because of our time zone and busy schedules, it didn't work to participate in the cooking lesson live but the taped version is great. Emilie and Erika do such a great job finding the perfect chef to walk us through the process. Not only do we getting a cooking lesson but we learn a few personal notes about the meal we are preparing and go so much deeper than simply reading a recipe card would allow. Two big takeaways for me this time were learning how to properly caramelize onions and learned how to make choux pastry. I will definitely be doing both again. Merci beaucoup!
We had a great time. My sister and nice were helping and we had fun making French food
My box was damaged by the postal service. I reached out to TROVE and got a quick response and a new box shipped to me. I loved the box and would recommend to a friend.
I was transported thru Textures, Taste and Treasures. I’m so glad I Found this wonderful company. My 16 year old and I just ate our magnificent meal. The items included in the box are treasures and the recipes are incredibly authentic and craveable !
Even tho I have been in an unusual living situation (moving about... not settled quite yet, but getting there), wouldn't miss my Trove box. Havent' watched the wine portion of the trip, but will soon! Love love love!!!
I just subscribed recently because my granddaughter wanted to learn more about cooking/baking this summer and this sounded like it would be fun. Well it is absolutely amazing. I subscribed for her to try some foods from around the world but I am loving it for me! This weekend I learned so much about wine and tried some from the Bordeaux France region and today I cooked a French meal along side a gifted chef - totally cool to do and very delicious. My grandkids just loved the croquettes and want to make more tomorrow. This box is not junk to clutter up the house - it is about new experiences. I subscribed for the year and can't wait to see what fall will bring! Kudos to Erika and Emilie for putting this box and the live online events together.
This is the best travel subscription box! Hands on experience and very enjoyable items!
I loved getting to try new cooking skills led by a french expert. My favorite were the chouquettes!!! Will be making these to wow my friends!
I loved the cooking class. It was very interactive and inclusive. The food was as good as a five star restaurant!
We were so excited to learn from such incredible wine makers and wine pros! Chris had so many fun tidbits and tasting with him was great. The white is perfect for the summer and the Chateau Belair is beyond! Can’t believe the price! I already bought two more wine packs and they came right away. Keep these wine events coming!
We loved all three wines!! We live a stone’s throw away from Napa Valley, but Bordeaux for the win. You can’t beat this amazing price that gets delivered right to your door.
