The Betsey Wedding Cheese Tower - Layer by Layer
Top Layer – Neufchâtel Heart (0.2kg)
A romantic heart-shaped cheese from Normandy, France, with a white bloomy rind. Often compared to Camembert but with a saltier, sharper taste, this charming cheese adds a touch of French elegance and makes a perfect romantic centrepiece for your wedding cheese tower.
- Dimensions: 9.5cm × 3cm
- Perfect for: Romantic presentation and French cheese lovers
Second Layer – Tunworth (0.25kg)
A premium English soft cheese produced using traditional rennet and pasteurised milk from a local herd. Slowly matured to capture the exceptional creaminess of the milk, Tunworth is often described as Britain's answer to Camembert, offering a rich, buttery flavour with distinctive mushroomy notes. This award-winning Hampshire cheese brings British sophistication to your tower.
- Dimensions: 11cm × 3.5cm
- Perfect for: Soft cheese lovers seeking premium British quality
Third Layer – Lincoln Blue (0.8kg)
An exceptionally creamy, mature blue cheese coated in distinctive pale yellow wax to retain moisture. This artisan Lincolnshire cheese offers a gentler blue flavour than Stilton, making it approachable for guests who are new to blue cheese while still delivering depth and character. The yellow wax creates a beautiful visual contrast in your tower.
- Dimensions: 14cm × 5cm
- Perfect for: Those preferring a milder, more approachable blue cheese experience
Fourth Layer – Manchego (3kg)
A substantial Spanish cheese from the La Mancha region, made from sheep's milk. Despite its firm texture, this traditional Manchego offers a complex taste with nutty, buttery notes and a hint of sharpness. This impressive 3kg wheel adds international flair and pairs beautifully with fruit, honey, and Spanish-inspired wedding themes.
- Dimensions: 19cm × 10cm
- Perfect for: Adding international flair and Spanish tradition
Fifth Layer – Blue Stilton (2kg)
An iconic English blue cheese and the undisputed king of British blues. Featuring distinctive blue veining throughout and a creamy colour, Stilton is crumbly yet creamy, delivering a bold, savoury punch with lingering depth of flavour that makes it essential for any traditional British cheese tower.
- Dimensions: 21cm × 5cm
- Perfect for: Blue cheese enthusiasts and British tradition
Sixth Layer – Red Leicester (4kg)
One of Britain's most popular farmhouse territorial cheeses. Red Leicester is a vibrant, russet-coloured cheese that has been matured for at least three months. It offers a sweet, mellow flavour that's similar to cheddar but slightly nuttier, making it a crowd-pleasing addition that adds visual warmth and traditional British character to your cheese wedding cake.
- Dimensions: 24cm × 8cm
- Perfect for: Visual impact and traditional British flavour
Bottom Layer – Mature Cheddar (5kg)
A classic British mature cheddar, hand-cut to form a strong and stable base for your cheese tower. Aged for depth and character, it delivers a satisfying richness and crumbly texture that anchors the entire wedding cheese cake while providing traditional cheddar flavour your guests will love.
- Dimensions: 30cm × 5cm
- Perfect for: Traditional cheddar lovers and structural stability
