Cheese

Due to Holland’s fertile soil and lush green pastures, our cows produce unusually rich milk. Additional cream is then added to the milk for an extra rich cheese we call Double Cream.

Double Cream has a mild flavor. It’s sliceable, melts beautifully, and is the ideal choice for making creamy cheese sauces. It also makes for delicious omlets, tortillas, and potatoes. Melt some on a hot piece of apple pie for a special dessert!

A semi soft cheese, Butterkase has an excellent buttery and creamery texture for all tables. This rindless cheese is made from pasteurized cow's milk and makes an excellent melt in your mouth cheese!

This new creation from Holland is unlike any other sheep milk cheese you have ever tasted before.

Aged six months or more, Midnight Moon® is a blushing, ivory-colored goat cheese that’s nutty and brown buttery upfront with a long caramel finish. Similar to a Gouda, as Midnight Moon® ages, protein crystals form and lend a slight crunch to the otherwise dense and smooth cheese. Know someone who (gasp!) doesn’t like goat cheese?
