Created by the renowned cheese producer, Guilloteau, this cheese is a smaller version of their popular Fromager d'Affinois. Smaller in size but just as big in flavor, this indulgent option is perfect for nestling onto crowded cheese boards or adding to your next packed lunch or picnic.
Combining cutting edge technology with time honored tradition, Guilloteau offers cheeses that benefit from the best of both worlds. Their Fromager d'Affinois is a soft-ripened cow’s milk cheese that undergoes a carefully controlled process to achieve its delectable texture and flavors.
The most distinguishing characteristic of Le Petit Fromager is its incredibly creamy and velvety nature. Smooth and supple, it practically melts in your mouth. This luxurious texture is achieved through the double-cream process, where additional cream is added during cheesemaking to give an extra rich and silky consistency. Mild and buttery, with subtle hints of sweetness and a delicate tang, the balanced flavors make it an excellent choice for those who prefer a milder cheese, yet it still offers a satisfying depth of taste.
Le Petit Fromager is a versatile option that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. It pairs wonderfully with fresh bread or crackers, allowing the smooth texture and creamy flavors to shine. It also works well in sweet and savory dishes, adding a touch of richness to salads, sandwiches, or even desserts. Its mild flavors make it a great match for both white and red wines, such as Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, or a sparkling wine for a bright contrast.
