Wedding cakes made of cheese wheels have become increasingly popular, and we're here to help you create a beautiful and delicious centrepiece for your special day.
In this support article, we'll discuss vegan-friendly cheese wheel options, the ingredients and production methods used in vegan cheese, and address common questions or concerns about vegan cheeses.
Vegan-friendly Cheese Wheels:
While our product range includes a wide variety of cheese wheels, unfortunately, we do not offer any vegan cheese wheel options. We understand the importance of catering to specific dietary needs and preferences, and we are actively working to expand our range of vegan-friendly cheese wheels in the future.
In the meantime, we recommend exploring local vegan cheese producers or online vegan food retailers for vegan cheese wheel options that you can incorporate into your cheese wedding cake.
Ingredients and Production Methods:
Vegan cheeses are made from plant-based ingredients, such as nuts (e.g., cashews, almonds), soy, coconut milk, and other non-dairy alternatives. They often contain thickeners, such as agar-agar, carrageenan, or tapioca flour, to achieve the desired texture, and various flavourings, such as nutritional yeast, lemon juice, miso, or herbs, to create the desired taste.
The production of vegan cheese typically involves soaking and blending the main ingredient (e.g., nuts or soy), combining it with thickeners and flavourings, and allowing the mixture to ferment or age to develop the desired flavour profile. Some vegan cheeses are also cultured with the same bacteria used in traditional cheese making, which helps to create a more authentic taste and texture.
Common Questions or Concerns:
1. Do vegan cheeses taste like traditional cheeses?
While some vegan cheeses closely mimic the taste and texture of traditional dairy cheeses, others may have a unique taste and texture. However, many vegan cheese producers have been perfecting their recipes and techniques, resulting in high-quality and delicious vegan cheese options that even non-vegans can enjoy.
2. Do vegan cheeses melt like traditional cheeses?
Not all vegan cheeses melt like dairy cheeses, as the melting properties depend on the ingredients and production methods used. Some vegan cheeses, particularly those made from coconut milk or containing added oils, may melt better than others. It's essential to research and test the specific vegan cheese you are considering using for your cheese wedding cake to ensure it meets your expectations.
3. Are vegan cheeses healthy?
Vegan cheeses can be a healthier alternative to traditional dairy cheeses, as they typically contain less saturated fat and cholesterol.
However, it's essential to keep in mind that not all vegan cheeses are created equal, and some may contain high levels of sodium, added oils, or artificial ingredients. Always read the ingredient list and nutritional information of any vegan cheese you are considering.
In conclusion, while we currently do not offer vegan cheese wheel options within our product range, we encourage you to explore the world of vegan cheeses and incorporate them into your cheese wedding cake if desired. We hope that this information has been helpful and that you have a fantastic wedding day with a delicious and memorable centrepiece.
