The cheese flavour is probably the most surprising part. The charcoal cheddar has a beautiful luxury mature cheddar taste, the layered flavours will really come when you leave this cheese on your tongue.

Colour
The cheese is as black as…. Well, coal.

The Sandwich
The charcoal cheese will add the wow factor to any sandwich, we recommend a Ploughman’s sandwich with the cheese combined with our Caramelised Onion Chutney. Add plenty of butter, lettuce, and tomatoes.
The Toastie
This may look strange but will taste amazing! We recommend grating the cheese over a generous spread of our Chuckling Cheese Red Onion Marmalade. It can then be heated until golden in colour.
Pasta Dishes
Tomato-based pasta dishes such as Spaghetti Bolognese can be beautifully finished off with charcoal cheese grated over the top. The cheese really brings out the tomato flavour and will leave you savouring every mouthful.
Cheesy Garlic Bread
Now stick with us on this one as it looks very strange, but the taste is sensational. During the creation of a simple pizza dough (flour, yeast, water, salt, and pepper). Add grated charcoal cheese to the mixture, this will create a dark grey marble colour as you knead the dough. Create your own topping with butter, chopped garlic, mixed herbs, and grated/ crumbled charcoal cheddar.
