Posh cheese gifts are the way to go to please your new neighbour, friend or loved one. You can never go wrong because it is easy to pair with anything.

It is important that you know how to give cheese as gifts. Fine cheese must have a good presentation as well.

Steps for making a cheese gift box:

  1. First, you have to line a gift box or a wooden basket with a decorative packing material or place a layered filler at the bottom of the basket. This can be a crumpled decorative paper, shredded cellophane, fabric or straw.
  2. Next, it is important that you include other complementary food and the accompanying tools that one needs to thoroughly enjoy the gourmet cheese. Fill the basket with a cheese board, a jar of chutney, honey, almonds, and/or gourmet crackers and maybe a couple of spreading knives.
  3. Add the tightly plastic-wrapped artisanal cheese(s) of your choice.
  4. Finally, add a menu card inside the basket which indicates the type of cheese(s) you are sending so that the recipient knows what exactly they are getting.
