Taleggia can also be used in many recipes, such as pizzas, macaroni dishes and onions tarts. You should also try grilling it and combining this with onion jam, to create a delightful toasted sandwich.

Taleggio is still on offer from Ideal Cheese, at a very special sale price of just $10.98 per lb. If you love the buttery and fruity taste of Taleggio, or wish to try some of the great ideas listed above, head to Ideal cheese now, where you can purchase many other offerings from the world of fine cheese.

Chocolate with Stilton? Allow us to Introduce the Chocolate Whirl…

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

We have provided our readers with some great ideas on how to use all that left over Easter chocolate (more on that soon), but now it’s time for a real chocolate and cheese surprise…what about chocolate and stilton cheese, mixed together?

Are we trying to desperately experiment with our chocolate and cheese leftovers? No, believe it or not, we’re actually referring to a new cheese product that’s been launched in the UK. This treat is made with 59% white stilton, 28% of cream cheese and is finished with 11% of fine Belgium chocolate.

This desert is called the chocolate whirl and has been available to buy from Tesco, since April 6th 2007!

As you can see, this daring and creative desert looks just like a swiss roll, with a slightly sweet taste. The Chocolate Whirl has a UK price tag of £7.99 per kg and although quite a extraordinary and unique desert, we think the Chocolate Whirl will be an instant hit with stilton fans.
