A question about : Wedding Cheese Cake
Hi, myself and my partner are planning our wedding, and we have decided to do away with the traditional wedding cake inplace of a much more satisfying wedding cake made of cheese. You've probably seen the kind before - a tower made up of wheels of different kinds of cheese.
You can buy these all over the place readymade,but they are typically in the region of Ј200+. I figure that they must be far cheaper to make yourself and shouldn't be that difficult.
My question is, where is the cheapest place to buy large full wheels of cheese?
We have a local cheese deli that sells this kind of thing, but being in Didsbury it is not at all cheap. There must be somewhere out there that does this on the cheap, likely online,. If anyone knows of such a place please let me know.
Thanks!
Best answers:
- Costco online do some cheese wedding cakes but it is made from cheaper looking blocks of cheese (looks a bit like top end supermarket stuff) https://www.costco.co.uk/view/product...s_6.4.4/141226
If you want proper wheels of cheese it will be a little more expensive as it is better quality cheese, not the block stuff you normally get. Best place for good cheese is Neal's Yard Dairy and they offer celebration "cakes" too https://www.nealsyarddairyshop.co.uk/...tion%2520Cakes - I always think Neal's Yard smells a bit, and this is down to the cheese.
I think Costco / Makro are good bets for great big hunks of rectangular cheese, if you are prepared to join / carve tthen stack them and trim with ribbons. If it's the massive wheels of cheese you're after, consider if anyone you know is likely to take a trip to Sainsburys in Calais. - Speak to your deli manager at waitrose or sainsburys, perhaps even tesco. The cheese is delivered in wheels to be cut in store on the deli, it has to be sold to you at the. Usual price. Most will order in what you want so you can pick it up uncut. Or at least I did when I managed the deli at waitrose a few years ago
