Rize Dark Crunch Mushroom Chocolate Bar - 12g Megadose
Rize Mushroom Chocolate Bar — Dark Crunch — 12g Megadose Bold 70% organic dark chocolate with crushed cookies and Rize’s 12g Megadose mushroom formula, which refers to a high concentration of mushroom extract in chocolate. Each scored tile contains 500mg. Includes lion’s mane extract and organic mushroom alkaloid extract (alkaloids are naturally occurring plant compounds known for their bioactivity). The least sweet, most potent, and most intentional bar in the entire Rize collection. Rize Dark Crunch Chocolate Bar Highlights 12g Megadose mushroom formula — Rize’s most potent format 500mg per scored tile for precise, self-guided dosing 70% organic dark chocolate base with real crushed cookies Infused with lion’s mane extract and organic mushroom alkaloid extract Made with organic cacao beans, organic cane sugar, and organic cocoa butter No synthetic additives — only natural organic proprietary mushroom alkaloid extract Scored into breakable tiles for micro through megadose flexibility Net weight: 80g (2.82 oz) Lab Test Results Rize Dark Crunch Mushroom Chocolate Bar Review There are two types of customers who buy mushroom chocolate. The first wants something sweet and easy that makes the dose disappear. The second wants something that respects the ingredients, respects the process, and doesn’t pretend that an edible mushroom is a candy bar. Dark Crunch 12g Megadose was built for the second type. With 70% organic cacao, this is real dark chocolate — roasted, bitter, and complex in ways most bars are not. The organic cacao beans, cane sugar, and cocoa butter create a deep cocoa base. Expect toasted warmth that opens on the palate and a natural bitterness developing mid-bite. The clean finish lingers but does not coat. Crushed cookies soften the experience just enough, adding a light crumble and a hint of vanilla to balance, not compromise, the bitterness. It contains 12 grams total, with each tile delivering 500mg of organic mushroom alkaloid extract and lion’s mane. This Megadose format makes Dark Crunch the highest-capacity bar in the collection. You have access to a ceiling of 12,000mg — letting experienced users try dose levels the 5g bar can’t reach. Go from microdose to full megadose, all using a single scored bar. It never asks you to eat something you wouldn’t enjoy on its own. That is the quiet power of Dark Crunch at this level. Other Megadose flavors rely on sweetness, nostalgia, or novelty to make the dose palatable. Dark Crunch relies on quality. The chocolate itself — even before mushroom extract is factored in — can stand up to any premium 70% dark bar. The extract is embedded in chocolate, worth eating for its own sake. At the 12g Megadose scale, this distinction matters more than most expect. When you buy from InJoy Extracts, you get this bar at manufacturer-direct pricing, with full lab transparency and fast, discreet shipping to all 50 states. Why Dark Crunch at 12g Megadose Is Built Different The 5g Dark Crunch bar introduces the flavor profile. The 12g Megadose format demonstrates its full capability, offering greater flexibility and capacity. 70% cacao contains theobromine, which compounds across tiles. Theobromine — a mild xanthine alkaloid found naturally in cacao — produces gentle, sustained alertness without caffeine’s spike-and-crash cycle. At 1–2 tiles, its effect is at the background level. But at the Megadose tier, the 12g format enables the cumulative theobromine from multiple tiles of 70% dark chocolate to become a perceptible layer of the experience — a quiet sharpness that sits underneath the mushroom alkaloid effects and keeps the mind engaged while the body relaxes. Low sugar scales better at high doses. One practical challenge with sweet mushroom chocolates at elevated tile counts is the sugar load. Five or six tiles of Cookies & Cream or Milk Crunch deliver a significant sugar dose that can cause energy spikes, nausea in some users, or a cloying aftertaste, making each additional tile harder to eat. Dark Crunch’s 70% cacao base has substantially less sugar per tile. At Megadose quantities, that lower sugar payload means a steadier metabolic ride, less gastric distress, and a cleaner overall experience from onset through comedown. The bitterness in dark chocolate prevents palate fatigue. The mechanism that makes Dark Crunch the least sweet bar also helps it perform well at high tile counts. Bitterness naturally resets the palate between servings. Each tile is as clean and engaging as the first. Sweet bars can become tiresome after many tiles. Dark Crunch avoids this threshold. The slower melt encourages better dosing discipline. At 70%, dark chocolate holds its structure longer, releasing flavor gradually. This promotes slower eating—essential for a 12,000mg dose. The chocolate’s format fosters patience and control. What Sets Rize Apart All-organic mushroom alkaloid extract, never synthetics. Rize sources exclusively natural, organic, proprietary mushroom alkaloid extract, while the majority of competitors use synthetic research compounds to save production costs. The organic approach produces a cleaner onset, a more natural peak with fewer hard edges, and a comedown that doesn’t leave users feeling drained or chemically off. Lion’s mane extract is listed as its own ingredient. Full transparency — not concealed inside a generic blend. Lion’s mane is among the most heavily researched nootropic mushrooms in the world, supported by studies on cognitive function, memory consolidation, nerve growth factor stimulation, and long-term brain health. 70% organic dark chocolate stands alone. This isn’t filler with a dark label. It’s organic cacao beans, cane sugar, and cocoa butter processed into a 70% bar with roasted depth and a clean finish. The mushroom extract is in chocolate, which is worth eating on its own. 500mg per tile, uniformly distributed, at every position on the bar. At the Megadose scale, dosing uniformity is not optional — it’s critical. The extract is blended into the chocolate during production, ensuring that the first tile, the last tile, and every tile between them deliver identical potency. Flavor Profile Rich, bold 70% organic dark chocolate with deep roasted cocoa notes and a full-bodied bitterness Crushed cookie pieces add a light crumble and a subtle vanilla sweetness that softens without sweetening. A mature, complex flavor profile that earns attention rather than demanding it Clean finish that lingers with roasted warmth — no sugar residue, no cloying aftertaste Zero mushroom taste — the dark chocolate’s own complexity absorbs the extract seamlessly The least sweet bar in the entire Rize collection by a significant margin Gets better the more slowly you eat it — the flavor develops in stages across the palate. At the Megadose scale, Dark Crunch’s flavor becomes something functional. The bitterness keeps each tile fresh at high counts. The roasted warmth provides a sense of familiarity during more intense moments. And the complete absence of heavy sweetness means you never hit a wall where the chocolate itself becomes part of the problem. It’s a flavor that works harder the more you ask of it. Other Available 12g Rize Mushroom Chocolate Bars Matcha Chocolate Bar (12g) Cookies & Cream Chocolate Bar (12g) Milk Crunch Chocolate Bar (12g) Shortcake Dream Chocolate Bar (12g) Rize Dark Crunch 12g Megadose Dosing Guide Each tile contains 500mg. The bar is scored for clean, even breaks. Always begin at the lowest dose appropriate for your experience and allow full onset before considering additional tiles. Dose Level Tiles Amount What to Expect Micro 1–2 tiles 500mg–1,000mg Quiet focus and a gentle sharpening of mental clarity. The theobromine in dark chocolate pairs with lion’s mane to produce centered, functional alertness without any stimulant edge. The definitive morning microdose — one tile with coffee or tea sets a grounded tone for the rest of the day. Therapeutic 3–5 tiles 1,500mg–2,500mg Focus deepens into something you can feel. Sensory detail sharpens, creative thinking loosens, and an introspective emotional tone settles in. Users at this tier consistently describe Dark Crunch as the most inward-looking, most contemplative experience in the Rize lineup — a bar that invites you to think rather than simply feel. Full Experience 6–8 tiles 3,000mg–4,000mg Sustained and powerful. Perception expands into new territory, emotions gain weight and texture, and the experience asks for your undivided attention. The dark chocolate’s slower melt and lower sugar contribute to a steady, even build that avoids the sudden peaks sweeter bars can produce. Experienced users in trusted environments only. God Mode 9–12 tiles 4,500mg–6,000mg The deep end of the Megadose range. Immersive, demanding, and transformational. The theobromine from cumulative 70% cacao tiles provides a subtle cognitive sharpness even at high intensity. For advanced users with extensive prior experience who have carefully planned their setup. Full Megadose All tiles 12,000mg The complete bar. Every tile consumed. This tier exists for users who have methodically worked through every level below and arrived here with full understanding of what 12,000mg means for their body and mind. Not aspirational — earned. Safe setting, trusted people, empty calendar, zero other substances. Onset timing: Effects typically begin within 30 to 60 minutes. Full onset may take up to 90 minutes. Dark chocolate’s lower sugar content and higher cacao percentage can produce a more gradual, more even onset than sweeter formats — a slow, steady build rather than a sudden wave. Do not redose for at least 90 minutes. Note for users coming from the 5g bar: The recipe and per-tile dose are identical. Your preferred tile count transfers directly. The only change is that the Megadose gives you access to dose tiers that the 5g bar can’t reach. Note for dark chocolate beginners: If your past Rize experience was with Cookies & Cream, Shortcake Dream, Milk Crunch, or Matcha, expect a fundamentally different experience. Dark Crunch is much more bitter and much less sweet. Most users adjust within a tile or two—and many prefer it—but the first bite is a clear departure. 12g Megadose vs 5g — Which Dark Crunch Is Right for You?

Frequently Asked Questions What is the Rize Dark Crunch 12g Megadose? Rize’s highest-potency chocolate bar format — 12 grams of organic mushroom alkaloid extract in a scored 70% organic dark chocolate bar with crushed cookies and lion’s mane extract. Each tile delivers 500mg for precise dosing from micro through full megadose. How is the 12g different from the 5g? Identical recipe, identical per-tile dose. The 12g Megadose has more tiles and a 12,000mg ceiling versus the 5g’s 5,000mg. More sessions per bar, access to higher dose tiers, and better per-tile value. Does dark chocolate actually affect the experience? Users consistently report that Dark Crunch produces a more grounded, introspective, and cognitively focused experience than sweeter bars at the same dose. This likely relates to theobromine from the 70% cacao, the lower sugar load producing a steadier metabolic ride, and the psychological effect of eating something serious rather than sweet. The mushroom formula and per-tile dosing are identical across all flavors. Is this bar good for microdosing? Many experienced users consider Dark Crunch the best Rize flavor for morning microdosing. The theobromine provides gentle alertness, the low sugar avoids energy fluctuations, and the lion’s mane supports cognitive clarity. One to two tiles in your morning routine is a natural fit — and the 12g format gives you significantly more microdose sessions per bar than the 5g format. Is this bar very bitter? At 70%, the bitterness is real and present — more than a standard milk chocolate bar, less than an 85% or 90% specialty dark. The crushed cookies soften the bitterness with their vanilla-forward sweetness. If you generally enjoy dark chocolate, you’ll appreciate the balance. If you typically avoid dark chocolate, Cookies & Cream, Milk Crunch, or Shortcake Dream will suit you better. Why is Dark Crunch good for high-dose sessions? Three reasons: the bitterness prevents palate fatigue at high tile counts, the low sugar load avoids gastric issues and energy crashes, and the slower melt encourages the kind of paced, deliberate eating that produces better, more controlled experiences at elevated doses. How long does it take to kick in? Effects typically begin within 30 to 60 minutes. Full onset may take up to 90 minutes. Dark chocolate’s lower sugar and higher cacao content can produce a more gradual, more even build than sweeter formats. Do not redose before 90 minutes. What’s the maximum dose for this bar? The full bar delivers 12,000mg. This tier is exclusively for advanced users with extensive experience across all lower levels. Most users find their ideal experience well below the maximum. Should I buy the 5g or the 12g? The 5g at $27.99 is the entry purchase — try the flavor, confirm it matches your palate, and explore the dose range with 10 tiles. The 12g Megadose at $45.00 is the follow-up for users who already know Dark Crunch is their bar and want more tiles, higher-dose access, and better per-tile economics. Are the ingredients organic? The chocolate base is organic cacao beans, organic cane sugar, and organic cocoa butter. The mushroom alkaloid extract is organic. The crushed cookies and lion’s mane extract are natural food-grade ingredients. Zero synthetic compounds. Will this show up on a drug test? Mushroom compounds are not part of standard drug screenings. Specialized tests that target mushroom compounds do exist and may be used in certain circumstances. How should I store this bar? Cool, dry location away from heat and direct sunlight. Dark chocolate is the most heat-resistant of all chocolate types, but should still be kept below 70°F for optimal snap and texture. If bloom (white film) appears, the bar is still safe and fully potent. Keep sealed between uses. Keep away from children and pets. Storage Guidelines Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and sunlight. Dark chocolate is more heat-resistant than milk or white chocolate, but should still be kept below 70°F for optimal texture and snap. If chocolate bloom (white surface film) appears, the bar remains safe and potent. Bloom is a cosmetic change caused by temperature fluctuation. Keep packaging sealed between uses to preserve freshness, potency, and cookie crunch. Keep out of reach of children and pets at all times.
