Happy New Year's Eve! #newyearseve #nye #festivecheese #celebrationcheese #cheeseinspo #mulledwineandcheese

This award-winning Cheese is created the same way that traditional cheddar is made at @FordFarmCheese However the heat of the milk is lowered & less stirring is done, resulting in a milder and softer texture🥄 It is then pressed into block moulds & left to mature for 3 months🧀

Roasted Chicken & Butternut Squash with Dorset Red & Sage Spelt. Many thanks to our guest chef Brett @TheWhitePost for this delicious winter recipe using seasonal squash, much-loved roast chicken and @SharphamPark spelt. The smoky Dorset Red gives a real warming note to the dish

Cave Aged Goats Cheese & Beetroot Hummus Blinis. Super simple yet packed with flavour, these are perfect for any festive party! Topped with our mild Cave Aged #GoatsCheese, with its rich, earthy, nutty flavours and caramel notes these are a crowd-pleasing plate of deliciousness!

Cave Aged Cheddar Toast & Fig #Canapés. These festive mini cheese on toasts are filled with flavour from the sweet, honey-like figs and the sticky, rich balsamic glaze, combined with our robust, rounded #CaveAgedCheddar and its distinctive, earthy and nutty flavour. #cheeseinspo

Festive times can bring gatherings of great #joy, but also of great hectiness! Plates of food that can be made quickly and easily are perfect for this time of year. We've made some Cave Aged Cheddar Toast & Fig #Canapés this week, with delicious rich, bold, tangy, sweet flavours.

Peppery hot #horseradish goes so well with cheddar, especially our #CoastalCheddar with its rugged flavours and sweet notes. Ubiquitous in the traditional Roast Beef Sunday Lunch, with Cauliflower Cheese & Horseradish Sauce, the pairing also works brilliantly in many more dishes.

Try a delicious #MulledCider with our #CaveAgedCheddar! Sweet and rich, with tangy tones and a warming blend of spices, it goes so well with our rich, rugged cheddar. Perfect for these cold winter evenings, where you can warm up inside with this fruity, spicy concoction.

With winter comes veggies full of character – earthy, nutty, sweet, sharp toned, tangy, bitter. Flavours to contrast and balance ingredients that are rich and fulsome. Such as chicory, with its crisp, mildly bitter leaves paired with #DorsetRed and its distinct mellow, smokiness.

We've been making cheese for over 40 years. Along with the skill of our #cheesemakers, we use methods that date back over 600 yrs. We don't take shortcuts, but make sure every process is carried out expertly. And we think this is what makes our rich, rugged #Coastal outstanding!

#CoastalCheddar & Nduja Omelette. Rich, rugged cheddar flavours, with subtle sweet top notes. Along with smokey, spicy #nduja that really packs a punch, leafy, slightly tangy, spinach and deliciously sweet roasted peppers. A fantastic way to start everyday! #englishbreakfastday

Beef Shin Ragu with Cave Aged Polenta. Caved Aged Cheddar is ideal for this recipe because of its strength and depth of flavour. The distinct, punchy characteristics, along with its creaminess, combine with the fine polenta to make this a wonderful dish. #beefragu #cheesypolenta
