World Cheese Awards - Gold

2022

Cocco La Mela is a refined blue cow's milk cheese, crafted with a unique blend of flavors and textures. The cheese is first infused with green apple liqueur and then coated with a luscious layer of milk chocolate, grated coconut, and dehydrated pomegranate seeds.


This extravagant combination creates a harmonious balance of sweet, savory, and spicy flavors. The exterior of the cheese is a rich brown, thanks to the chocolate coating, while the interior features a soft, compact, ivory-colored paste with blue veining.


The taste is intense, with a delightful contrast between the sweetness of the chocolate and the acidity of the liqueur, alongside the savory blue cheese and fruity hints from the apple and coconut. It is perfect as a dessert cheese, particularly enjoyed with fine dessert wines or spirits.
