Different Tiers
Tier 1: Baby Colston Basset Stilton
The best Stilton in the world is our opinion here at The Cheese Wedding Cake! Colston Bassett is one of the smallest dairies in the United Kingdom and they make their pasteurised cow’s milk Stilton using traditional methods of hand-ladled curds and animal rennet, which sets it apart from every other Stilton maker. The result of these methods give Colston Bassett Stilton a more luscious texture, creamy and full-bodied. The flavour is more complex and deeper than any other Stilton produced with vegetable rennet.
It has a wonderful, creamy texture with pale, ivory paste that edges onto amber as it gets nearer the rind and an even distribution of blue coloured veins. The beautiful looking rind is amber in colour, speckled with patches of white mould and the flavour of Colston Bassett Stilton is earthy and rich with a good tang of blue mould and a buttery finish.
Tier 2: Godminster Organic Cheddar
Made in Bruton, Somerset the Iconic Godminster Organic cheddar with its striking burgundy wax coating makes such a brilliant cheese for a celebration cake. This wonderfully creamy cheddar is matured for up to 12 months, at which point only the very best cheeses are selected to be made into the award-winning 2kg truckles. Godminster has a rich depth of flavour without the acidity that is sometimes associated with vintage cheddar, giving it a full and rounded flavour with a smooth and creamy texture.
All of Godminster’s cheeses are certified as organic by the Soil Association and as such contain no artificial preservatives.
Tier 3: Dorset White
As the name suggests, Dorset White is a soft white mould-ripened cheese, moulded in a log shape. Made by the great team at Chalke Valley Cheeses in our native Dorset the thick sculpting of the log allows for a creamier, stronger paste just under the rind when ripe, while at the same time preserving a slightly firmer and tangier centre.
As with their other cheese Cranborne, Dorset White matures into its ‘favourite old cardigan’ rind, darker with patches of other colours. This brings an intensity and depth of flavour to accompany the beautiful softness just under the rind. Dorset white is perfect when paired with crisp dry white wines such as Sancerre and Pouilly Fume.
