At Dwell Refine, we’re always on the lookout for brands that enhance life at home—and beyond. We’re especially proud to spotlight intentional, women-owned businesses that are rooted in wellness, creativity, and conscious living. That’s why we’re so excited to introduce you to Alice, a brand that’s changing the way we think about functional mushrooms—one decadent chocolate square at a time.
Why Alice?
Alice was born from the belief that mushrooms should be a daily ritual, not a last resort. Founders Lindsay (a former pharmaceutical exec) and Charlotte (a food scholar and media expert) met in 2020 with a shared vision: to create a supplement that was as delicious as it was effective. Tired of pills, powders, and potions that felt more like chores than choices, they set out to create a functional chocolate that works as hard as you do—and actually tastes good.
After two years of research and formulation with homeopathic doctors and chocolatiers, Alice Mushrooms launched with one goal: to make you feel good—naturally.
Backed by Science, Loved by Taste Buds
Every bite of Alice chocolate is packed with a powerhouse blend of organic fruiting-body mushrooms, nootropics, and adaptogens. The result? Products that support long-term brain health while delivering immediate boosts to focus, sleep, and even intimacy.
There are three blends to choose from—or you can try them all with the Discovery Set:
-
Brainstorm – For energy and razor-sharp focus.
-
Nightcap – For your deepest, dreamiest sleep ever.
-
Happy Ending – For moments of intimacy and connection.
Each one comes in a perfectly portioned square of rich, dark chocolate that’s actually enjoyable to take daily. No clumpy powders, no chalky capsules—just pleasure with purpose.
Alice at The Topanga Canyon Sound Meditation
We experienced the magic of Alice firsthand when our co-founder Codi hosted a sound meditation gathering in Topanga Canyon. Alice provided their Nightcap mushroom chocolates to help attendees ease into deep rest—and the response was overwhelming. The community couldn’t stop talking about how peacefully they slept and how delicious the chocolates were. Since then, many of us (Codi included!) have made Alice a staple in our own nightly rituals.
It’s one of those rare brands that we not only love—but continue to use, recommend, and believe in wholeheartedly.
Your Daily Dose of Delight
Alice offers several bundles to help make your new ritual stick:
The Open x Alice Mushrooms Sleep Ritual
Drift into your deepest sleep ever with Nightcap x Open — a powerful collaboration between Alice Mushrooms and the Open app. This nighttime bundle blends functional mushrooms, calming minerals, and mindful movement to help you unwind fully, sleep deeply, and wake up restored.
What’s Inside:
-
2 Full-Size Tins of Nightcap – Alice’s best-selling mushroom sleep supplement
-
100% Silk Alice Mushrooms Eye Mask – For uninterrupted, luxurious rest
-
Open 21-Day Sleep Reset – A guided journey to reset your sleep habits
-
30 Days of Free Access to the Open App – Daily breathwork, meditation, and movement
Why It Works:
Harness the natural power of ingredients like reishi, zinc, magnesium, L-theanine, and chamomile to promote deep rest and full-body relaxation:
-
Create natural melatonin with zinc and magnesium
These two essentials increase the body’s natural melatonin production to support your circadian rhythm and regulate sleep from within. Zinc also helps quiet a busy mind, especially after stressful days. -
De-stress and balance sleep patterns with zinc and reishi
Reishi is a powerful adaptogen that reduces stress and fatigue while promoting relaxation. Paired with chamomile, it helps reset healthy sleep cycles so you wake up refreshed. -
Relax your mind and body with L-theanine and magnesium
Magnesium acts as a gentle muscle relaxer, reducing tension throughout the body. L-theanine enhances mood and calm by boosting GABA, serotonin, and dopamine — the neurotransmitters that promote deep, restorative rest.

Why We’re Obsessed
We love Alice not just for what they make, but for what they stand for. As a women-owned company advocating for food as medicine, they are also deeply committed to the healing power of all mushrooms—including psilocybin. Alice donates a portion of profits to The Hope Project and is a founding member of the Microdosing Collective, helping to expand access to psychedelic research and support.
In a world full of overstimulation and undernourishment, Alice offers an invitation: to slow down, to nourish your brain, and to embrace mushrooms not as medicine, but as a daily indulgence.
Support Women. Support Wellness. Support Alice.
We’re thrilled to bring brands like Alice into your world—companies that align with our mission to elevate your space, your wellness, and your intentional living journey. We hope you try Alice, love it as much as we do, and maybe even share it with someone who needs a little more clarity, calm, or connection in their life.
