Bruleed St. Saviour Cheese

St. Saviour is a soft-ripened, camembert-style cheese with a rich, buttery flavor and a soft, creamy core inside a delectable rind. Camembert cheese first appeared in Normandy, France, in the late 18th century. Today, Wisconsin’s Master Cheesemakers craft St. Saviour camembert-style cheese from rich, pure milk that comes exclusively from Hoard’s Dairyman Farms.
