Robiolini Cheese Making Recipe

5 1 review
Print Recipe
This cheese was inspired by a tasting of soft cheeses, where Robiola and Camembert were being compared with other soft bloomy rind cheeses. It's essentially a wonderful new offspring of Camembert and Robiola.

Robiolini combines the best of these two cheeses into a fantastic new cheese using Flora Danica to provide a soft texture in the cheese, even when young and unripened.

About half the size of a Camembert, Robiolini has a more even ripening of the paste and has a silky surface that's reminiscent of St Marcellin.
