Sweetheart White Stilton Cheese

"Looking for something sweet and sophisticated to share with your sweetheart this Valentine’s season? Might we recommend Trader Joe’s Sweetheart White Stilton Cheese? Our latest Spotlight Cheese is made for us by a renowned creamery in Leicestershire, U.K., who starts with a base of mild, crumbly, and captivatingly creamy White Stilton. You might be familiar with our Blue Stilton—this is the same style of cheese, just without those veins of Penicillium roqueforti that make blue Stilton so tangy and, well, blue. Instead, this Sweetheart Stilton is studded with a mix of teeny bits of chocolate fudge, buttery caramel, and chewy dried cherries to give each bite a complementary mix of candy flavors and toothsome textures. To make each truckle (by which we mean a stout, barrel-shaped portion of cheese) seem even more like a gift, our supplier also packs this cheese in eye-catching, bright red wax. We recommend unsealing this Stilton with a loved one as part of a Valentine’s party hors d’oeuvres spread, in a picturesque picnic with your favorite charcuterie, or as a post-dinner dessert cheese, to be paired with some sweet wine and candlelight."
