KASEREI CHAMPIGNON Camembert Petit 125 Gr X 28 Pcs

The town of Camembert, located in the Orne region of France, gave its name to this cheese. It shares similar characteristics with Brie cheese but is more pungent. Its usage and appearance are almost identical. A slow-ripening type of cheese, Camembert features an edible rind along with a soft and creamy texture. It belongs to the mold-ripened cheese category. After the cheese is shaped, penicillin is applied to its outer surface to develop the mold layer. A single wheel weighs only 240g and was preserved in a wooden box designed by an engineer in 1890 to withstand sea voyages; however, with modern advancements in packaging techniques, most companies today use plastic or metal containers.
