A Must-Try Cheese: Delice de Bourgogne


With a blog name like Triple Crème Decadence, you know I adore triple crème cheeses.
Triple crème cheeses are the butteriest and most luscious cheeses of them all. Its decadent creamy texture is the result of adding triple the amount of cream at the beginning of the cheesemaking process, boosting the butterfat content to 75%+ in dry matter.
Hailing from the Burgundy region of France is Delice de Bourgogne, one exceptional triple crème! 
Delice de Bourgogne has a subtle earthy flavor with a lingering tang from the addition of crème fraîche.
 The texture is divinely rich with a thin rind that melts in your mouth and a whipped cream-like interior. An ideal pairing to such a decadent cheese is a glass of Champagne. The Champagne bubbles are palate cleansing and the acidity aids in cutting the richness.
