Camembert & Friends Cheesemaking Workshop – Christchurch

Love creamy, soft-ripened cheeses?

Join All About Cheese for a hands-on cheesemaking experience where you'll learn the art and science behind some of the world's most loved artisan cheeses.

Imagine opening your cheese fridge to reveal your own handcrafted Camembert, luxurious triple cream cheeses, and beautiful white bloomy-rind cheeses that look like they came straight from an artisan creamery. These are the cheeses that impress family, friends, and fellow cheese lovers.

During this workshop you'll make and learn about:

Camembert

Triple Cream Cheeses

Valencay

You'll discover how to work with specialist cultures and moulds, how to care for your cheeses during the ageing process, and how to achieve the flavours and textures that make these cheeses so irresistible.

This is a practical workshop, not a demonstration. You won't be watching someone else make cheese. You'll be making it!

Whether you're completely new to cheesemaking or looking to expand your skills beyond fresh cheeses, this workshop will give you the knowledge and confidence to create artisan-style cheeses in your own kitchen.

Your ticket includes:

Expert tuition

All ingredients and equipment

Comprehensive take-home notes

Cheesemaking samples and tastings

Lunch and refreshments

On-going support

No previous cheesemaking experience is required, although many participants choose to attend our Feta & Fundamentals workshop first.
