Camembert Rustique is a delicious soft, ripened cheese originating from the Normandy region of France. It is made from cow's milk and has a rich, creamy texture and a distinctive earthy flavour. The cheese is encased in a white bloomy rind, which adds to its unique taste.


Pairing Suggestions: Camembert Rustique pairs well with a variety of foods and beverages, making it an excellent addition to any cheese wedding cake. Some popular options include:


  • Fresh fruit: Apples, pears, and grapes complement the cheese's creamy texture and enhance its flavours.
  • Crackers and bread: Rustic bread or artisan crackers provide a satisfying crunch and allow the cheese to shine.
  • Charcuterie: Cured meats such as prosciutto or salami add a savoury element that complements the cheese's richness.
  • Wine: A crisp, acidic white wine like a Sauvignon Blanc or a fruity red wine like a Pinot Noir can help to cut through the richness of the cheese and cleanse the palate.
