Creating a cheese board is an artful blend of flavors, textures, and aesthetics that allows cheese to shine as the centerpiece. At The French Farm, we believe that while cheese is the undisputed queen of any board, it’s the supporting flavors that make it truly memorable. Our carefully curated line of L’Epicurien Confits for Cheese offers a unique selection of accompaniments that introduce extraordinary depth to every bite. From flower-infused confits to rich, aromatic honeys, each addition helps to enhance the natural flavors of the cheese without overpowering it.
Floral Notes in Every Bite: Rose Petal and Lavender Confits
Our L’Epicurien Rose Petal Confit and Lavender Confit are delicately crafted to deliver an exquisite jelly-like texture with visible seeds that hint at the authentic flowers used in each jar. These floral confits are more than just an aesthetic addition—they’re crafted to pair beautifully with a variety of cheeses. The Rose Petal Confit, with its subtle sweetness and floral undertones, complements creamy, soft cheeses like brie or camembert. Meanwhile, the lavender’s more herbal, slightly bitter notes contrast beautifully with tangy, semi-soft cheeses such as goat, offering a unique taste experience that’s sure to captivate.
L’Abeille Occitane’s Honeys for Cheese: Perfectly Sized and Artfully Crafted
Our selection of honeys for cheese from L’Abeille Occitane includes favorites like Acacia honey, a bestseller due to its mild and floral flavor that pairs exceptionally well with aged cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano and aged gouda. Its smooth, light consistency lets the cheese’s texture take the lead while subtly enhancing the flavor.
Each of our honeys comes in a convenient 4.4oz jar, ideal for cheese boards of any size. Lavender honey, with its slightly herbaceous quality, is perfect with fresh cheeses like ricotta or mascarpone. Forest honey, darker and more robust, pairs wonderfully with aged or blue cheeses, where its complex, woodsy notes bring a new depth to the bold flavors of the cheese. Chestnut honey, with its slight bitterness, balances the richness of cheeses like pecorino or aged manchego, creating an unexpectedly harmonious pairing.
Highlight: Pebeyre Truffle Honey, An Oprah Favorite
Our Pebeyre Truffle Honey is an exceptional addition to any cheese board. Highlighted as one of Oprah’s Favorite Things in 2015, this truffle-infused honey continues to delight with its luxurious aroma and intense, earthy flavor. The rich truffle essence is best enjoyed with mild and creamy cheeses, such as a triple-cream brie or even a soft blue cheese, where the honey’s depth can truly stand out. Just a drizzle of this gourmet honey transforms the cheese into an indulgent, complex experience, making it a must-have for cheese connoisseurs and truffle lovers alike.
Perfecting the Presentation: The Right Tools
No cheese board is complete without the right tools. Our high-quality cutlery and olive wood accessories from The French Farm add not only functionality but also a rustic charm to the board. With our selection of cheese knives and serving spoons, each guest can enjoy their cheese pairing with ease and elegance. From traditional wooden handles to sleek, polished finishes, these tools ensure that every part of your cheese board experience is refined and memorable.
Elevating your cheese board with unique flavors like flower-infused confits and aromatic honeys is a simple yet impactful way to enhance each cheese’s characteristics.
