Petit Camembert

A beautifully petite Camembert from Isigny Sainte-Mère in Normandy, made using rich Normandy milk from farms around the Isigny terroir. Isigny Sainte-Mère has been making Camembert since 1932 and has become renowned for its traditional Norman cheesemaking.

This little Camembert has a fine, soft white rind and a smooth, creamy ivory paste. Its flavour starts gently, with a lovely milky sweetness and delicate saltiness, before developing more pronounced earthy, mushroomy and fruity notes as it matures. At the right stage of ripeness, the centre becomes beautifully soft and yielding, with the rich, buttery character you want from a good Camembert.

At just 150g, it’s a wonderfully manageable size, perfect for one person to bake and enjoy with some crusty bread, or ideal for sharing as a small starter or aperitif. Pop it into the oven until gloriously gooey and serve with bread for dipping, or simply enjoy it at room temperature on a cheeseboard.

A little taste of Normandy, in a perfectly petite package.

It really depends on the occasion, and, of course, how much you love cheese!

As a general guide, for a cheeseboard serving 6 people, we recommend allowing 40–60g of each cheese per person, with 3–4 different cheeses at around 250g each. This gives you a good variety of flavours and textures, with enough for everyone to enjoy without creating too much leftover cheese.

For parties, weddings, events or larger gatherings, the amount you’ll need can vary depending on how the cheese is being served and what else you’re offering. Our cheesemongers are always happy to help, so please get in touch by phone or email for personalised advice.

Please note: all cheeses are cut by hand; therefore, the weights listed are approximate. We work very hard to cut them as accurately as we can.  

We send our cheese by Royal Mail Tracked 24, with next-day delivery available across all UK postcodes for £4.99 per parcel. Orders over £60 qualify for free delivery.

We carefully pack every order to help keep your cheese in the best possible condition during transit. Royal Mail are very reliable, and most parcels arrive within 24 hours, but occasional delays can happen.

If you’re ordering cheese for a special occasion, party or event, we recommend having it delivered a couple of days beforehand. This gives you some extra time in case of an unexpected courier delay and allows the cheese to rest and reach its best before serving.

We currently deliver throughout the UK but do not offer international delivery.

Every order is cut and packed by hand, fresh to order by our team of cheesemongers.

Your cheese is wrapped in breathable waxed paper, which allows it to breathe while helping to protect it during transit and in your fridge. It is then placed inside a thermal foil pouch with a frozen gel pack to keep it cool on its journey. The gel pack will naturally defrost during transit; this is completely normal.

Finally, everything is carefully packed into a branded box to keep your order safe and presentable when it arrives.

We’re also conscious of the environmental impact of packaging. Around 95% of our packaging is recyclable or reusable, and we’re continually looking for ways to reduce waste and make our business more sustainable. We believe great cheese should be enjoyed with consideration for the planet, too.

Pairing Suggestion – Picos de Pan Breadsticks

Bake this lovely little cheese until deliciously soft and gooey, then dip in with crisp Spanish breadsticks. Serve alongside charcuterie, olives and a glass of something cold for a taste of the Mediterranean — no holiday required!
