#1 Best paired with coffee
This cheesy snack idea is best served with coffee and enjoyed with your best mates! All you need is a cup of your favourite coffee, crackers, honey, dried apricots and blue cheese ofcourse.
Take your cracker and place a small wedge of blue cheese on top. Add a drop of honey and garnish with a slice of apricot – and that’s it! A deliciously cheesy snack that’s worth sharing.
#2 A deliciously creamy upgrade to your break time
We all know this story; it’s the middle of the day and you’re craving a snack to munch on while on break. Treat yourself with this sensational treat that’s sure to satisfy your cravings with every bite.
Start with a cracker. Layer it with a slice of savoury high-quality Italian salami. We suggest using fennel salami as the light taste of anise pairs with the creamy slightly sweet and lightly salted cheese really well. Add a small slice of blue cheese and top it off with fresh basil.
#3 A sweet and savoury delight
For a snack that not only looks beautiful but also tastes like heaven make a beeline for this sweet and savoury delight.
All you need is a crispy cracker, a mini wedge of blue cheese, a side of dark chocolate and Amarena cherries. The sweet and slightly sour taste of pickled cherries complements the savoury and creamy cheese very well. You can use fresh cherries or prunes too if you prefer a fresher experience.
#4 The perfect movie buddy
What’s movie night without the quintessential snacks? The usual and favourite suspect for a night immersed in big-screen stories is popcorn. But why not make it a little more unusual? Here is a tip for how to make it a night to remember. You need a bowl of oven-baked beetroot crisps, caramel popcorn and your favourite cheeses. The combination of crunchy crisps and sweet popcorn makes a great match for the blue cheese. Sprinkle a little thyme on top of the beetroot crisps to add an extra layer of freshness and aroma. Enjoy!
#5 The ultimate midnight snack
Here’s a snack that’s worth staying up for; creamy blue cheese laid on top of a crispy cracker and garnished with dark chocolate.
Make sure to choose a dark chocolate variant with a high percentage of cocoa to get the perfect balance to the creamy, slightly savoury and sweet blue cheese. Trust us, it’s a snack you won’t want to miss.
