  • Grapes
  • Sliced Apple and Pears
  • Chutneys and Pickles
  • Walnuts
  • Dates
  • Crackers
  • Warm crusty baguette
  • Fruit cake

Tips

  • Remove the cheese from the fridge an hour before serving
  • Typically cheese is served after dessert or as an alternative, however serving cheese after the main course and before dessert is a great way to finish off the wine from the main and move into the dessert wine
  • Check out our article on perfect wine pairings for this platter here.
  • 4-5 different styles of cheese are perfect for a party of 5 or more
  • Arrange the cheese in the order you plan to taste them, from mild flavoured to strong. We recommend:-
    • Carnival
    • Aged Leicestershire Red
    • Smooth Blue
    • Mature Blue Stilton
    • Blue Shropshire
  • Place the cheese board in the centre of the table, allowing plenty of space for guests to taste, mingle and discuss!
