Cheese help 08:49 - Aug 23 with 9157 viewsCharlie1

I need CONNOISSEURS on this thread not AMATEURS.

A 5 tiered cheese cake for let's say a certain event (@ Real Loftus, behave please on this thread); what should said cheeses be?

Stilt's is obviously in the squad but I'm in severe danger of doing a Mark Hughes and ordering every cheese on the planet. Help required before my six pack is more akin to Homer Simpson's.

Muchas Gracias

2:59 baby!

Hi Charlie 1
The safest option is as follows. From bottom to top:
1) Base - Mature cheddar (you obviously need a firm cheese on the bottom)
2) Creamy Stilton (not one that's been in the fridge!)
3) Large Brie (Somerset IS as good as a lot of the French stuff)
4) Medium sized Camembert or equivalent (nice and soft one)
5) Top - Small goat's cheese





Top man.

You sir are a Connoisseur

Not sure about goats cheese though. Thinking Met's fiery thing.

Port hmmmmmmm port.

you could always buy those mini smoked german sausage shape cheeses, stick a pineapple chunk on cocktial stick in it and enjoy watching people who think they are weenies shove it down their gobs expecting a nice meaty flavour only to discover they have in fact consumed a non ediable food covering enveloping a piece of German processed pharmacutical based cheese substitute.

If you are going to use a brie type cheese go for Epoisses which is the best of that type of cheese I've ever had

Make sure there is some of this wickedly strong French blue cheese in there, with some fromage de brebis as a delightful counterpoint:

Thank you- appreciated. There were two reasons I joined this site a) Clive's reports 2) cos of the cheese fetish.
Know what you mean about the goat - can't stand the stuff myself but it looks nice on the top and there's usually someone around who's appreciative
For the record - I had one of these at my wedding. I put a cardboard cutout of Gerry Francis on the top, which went down well. This dates me i realise ...

top fromagology challenge!

you need to get a pyramid effect with all the colours, cow and sheep in there, and different countries. FWIW i would go, from bottom to top:

1 crumbly white base - wensleydale, caerphilly, asiago


2 something coloured - e.g. sage derby


3 softish but not too soft - munster, brie


4 blue - got to be stilton


5 stinky liquid blob, sitting in the scoop of the stilton - vacherin mont d'or or burrata

How does this 5-cheese cake work? You just pile 'em on top of each other and eat the lot? Seems a shame not to keep them separate and appreciate the differences.

My suggestion:
1. A blue - Stilton's first name on your team sheet
2.A soft creamy number, probably Brie
3. Something crumbly - I'd go for Caerphilly but you could have Cheshire or Wensleydale [surprisingly good with apple pie, BTW]
4. A hard cheese with a bit of oomph to it, say a proper mature cheddar
5. Final layer you can go two ways, either a strong runny one - goat's cheese not a bad call - or a firm but mild option such as single gloucester [not double gloucester, that can be any old supermarket rubbish, but single gloucester has to be made from milk from Gloucester cattle which is extra creamy.

Best to avoid one made by a bloke I know. Most of his cheeses are goat's but he does the occasional cow's milk one - this named after his ex: "Lying Cow"

Mature farmhouse cheddar
Canadian cheddar
Irish cheddar
Welsh cheddar
Extra mature cheddar



What a bore-fest that would be. Anyway if its a cheesecake you probably need some of those mild creamy girlie cheeses that I don't know much about.

right lunchtime now time to find some stinky cheese in watford


Watford Cheese is well known, however it has become very expensive of late! I would suggest a blast on some (as an appetite builder) before moving on to food!
