The Cheesemonger’s Notes

Ultra-luxurious French triple cream cheese with exceptional richness and silky texture

Délice de Bourgogne is one of France’s most indulgent cheeses, created in Burgundy and celebrated for its extraordinary richness and smooth, creamy texture. Enriched with additional cream, this triple cream cheese elevates soft cheesemaking to its most luxurious expression.

Made using cow’s milk and extra cream, Délice de Bourgogne develops a delicate bloomy rind that protects its soft, pillowy interior. As it matures, the paste becomes increasingly silky and yielding, delivering a texture that melts effortlessly on the palate.

The flavour is rich, buttery, and deeply satisfying, with gentle tang and subtle mushroom notes from the rind balancing its cream-laden indulgence. Despite its richness, it remains elegant and refined rather than heavy.

This is a cheese designed for pure pleasure — luxurious, comforting, and unforgettable.

• Fresh berries, figs, or grapes
• Champagne or sparkling wine
• Honey or fruit preserves
• Crusty baguette or brioche
• Light white wines

Ideal Uses

• A luxurious centrepiece cheese
• Perfect for special occasion cheeseboards
• Served as a dessert cheese
• Spread onto fresh bread
• Best enjoyed at room temperature

Answering your everyday cheese questions

How long will this cheese last?

All cheeses are cut fresh at the counter and dispatched in insulated packaging.

For the best flavour, we recommend enjoying within 5–7 days of delivery. Hard cheeses may last longer if stored correctly.

How should I store this cheese?

Keep refrigerated in its original wrapping or waxed paper. Avoid airtight plastic containers. Always bring to room temperature 30–45 minutes before serving for the best flavour and texture.

Is this cheese suitable for freezing?

We don’t recommend freezing soft or blue cheeses as it can affect texture. Hard cheeses may be frozen for cooking purposes, but flavour is best when enjoyed fresh.

What if my cheese has mould on it?

Mould is a natural part of many artisan cheeses.

If the cheese is meant to have a white rind, blue veining or natural mould, this is completely normal and part of its character.

If you notice surface mould on a hard cheese, it can usually be trimmed away safely — simply cut at least 1cm around and beneath the mould.

If mould appears on a soft cheese that is not intended to have mould, or if you are unsure, please contact us and we will advise.

We only dispatch cheeses in excellent condition, selected at peak maturity.

Is this cheese safe during pregnancy?

Pasteurised cheeses are generally considered safe. If a cheese is unpasteurised, this will be clearly stated in the Key Facts section. If unsure, please consult current NHS guidance

Can I request a specific size?

Weights are approximate to ensure fairness and quality. If you require a specific size for an event, please contact us before ordering.

Can this cheese be included in a hamper or cheeseboard selection?

Yes. Many of our cheeses are available in curated cheeseboards, gift hampers or our Cheesemonger’s Selection.
