Products

  • Do all your cheeses contain nuts?

    No. Most of our cheeses contain nuts but we also have a decent selection that are nut free.  All the ingredient information and allergens are displayed on each product packaging.

  • Do all the cheeses need to be kept in the fridge?

    Yes absolutely. Just like dairy cheese they like to be kept cold! Although we do suggest taking them out of the fridge half an hour before serving - provided you have the required self control (we're working on that)!

  • How long is the shelf life of the cheeses?

    It varies depending on the product, however most cheeses we recommend eating within 2 weeks. Once opened, they last about 5 days. To avoid further contamination or fast maturation, we advise to keep them in an airtight container and to always use a clean knife. We personally judge the quality of the cheese by the smell and taste and base our decision on that. 

  • How many people does one cheese fondue serve?

    One fondue can easily satisfy 2 people as a main course. As a starter it serves 4 people. We do suggest you load up on veggies to dip in the bowl.

  • How long can I keep the cheese outside the fridge for?

    We recommend not more than 3 hours. Of course, it depends on which cheeses as they have different packaging. The only exception is the parmesan that can be stored in a dry and chill place.
