We have Descomyces albus ... but this one is orange in colour and I should have cut it open but didn't. Will do so next time.

Possibly one of the truffles in the family Russulaceae (but not guaranteed to be in that family). You get that deep carrot colour in at least one of the Russulaceae.

Can you eat any of the native truffles?
