NEW Cello Fruit, Nut and Cheese Snack Packs
An indulgence meant for your snack break, not your kids’ lunch box.
Copper Kettle Cheese with Lemon Ginger Cherries and Praline Pecans
First up, we have our Copper Kettle cheese accompanied by lemon ginger cherries and praline pecans. This mix of flavors offers the perfect salty and sweet combination and texture blend. The cheese itself gives off that signature flavor, bursting with the notes of caramel you love from our Copper Kettle Parmesan. Alongside the salty pecans, the sweetness really sings. With a finish of lemon ginger cherries, your taste buds are sure to be treated to a merging of citrus, fresh ginger, and fruity tartness that will make you wonder how something so decadent can be in one small snack.
Pairing Suggestions
This snack pack is extremely versatile and pairs easily with a variety of beverages. For the wine drinkers, we suggest adding a California Pinot Noir to your cheese, nut, and fruit picnic. Pinot Noir is a thin skinned grape full of fruity, jammy flavors that are sure to elevate the tartness of the lemon and cherries.
For the beer connoisseur, we suggest trying a pint of a bourbon barrel stout. This rich, full beer is the perfect partner for this light and airy snack. Add some peanut butter to make this combo even more indulgent. Looking for a nonalcoholic alternative? Enhance that lemon flavor with something bubbly like a seltzer water or cola.
Fontal Cheese with Dried Blueberries and Lemon Praline Almonds
Our second addition is similar in flavor profile, but packs its own unique punch. Our Fontal cheese is a fan favorite, and is now getting the snacking recognition it deserves. We chose this combination of foods because the creamy texture of the cheese pairs excellently with the slightly sweet, dried blueberries. The lemon praline almonds add a touch of tart mixed with a hint of saltiness. With such a variety of flavor profiles to round out this nut and cheese snack, the trio is sure to please every single one of your taste buds.
Pairing Suggestions
If you are more of a white wine drinker, snag one of these snack packs (actually, make it a few because an indulgence like this will attract a crowd) and try it alongside a creamy, buttery Chardonnay. Not only will the full body of the wine complement the creaminess of the cheese, but the acidity of the wine is sure to bring out those tart lemon and blueberry flavors. Bonus points if you choose a Chardonnay that’s been aged in oak barrels.
For the beer lover, add some extra sweetness to the tart fruit flavors by pouring out a pint of porter or cream ale. Drizzle a bit of honey over your pack and enjoy it with an iced tea (sweetened!) if you want to skip the alcohol and make your sweet tooth even happier.
This food and drink pairing is best enjoyed on your patio on a nice day, on a hiking adventure with friends, or even just curled up on the couch with your favorite book — after the kids go to bed of course.
These new fruit, nut and cheese snacks are versatile and will satisfy your craving no matter where you are, from your morning commute, that afternoon slump you hit during the workday, or a late night impromptu night with friends.
A multitude of flavors were carefully selected by our Master Cheesemaker and packed into each small container to give you a satisfying snacking experience. Plus, with seven grams of protein per serving, they will give you the fuel you need to take on whatever you’re tackling today. Ditch the plain cheddar, peanut, raisin combo you just packed in your child’s lunch and reach for a truly satisfying treat made just for the grown-ups.
