Italian Fontal - 2kg
Fontal is a smooth and creamy Italian cheese, known for its mild, buttery flavour and excellent melting qualities. Made from cow’s milk, it has a pale yellow interior with a supple, elastic texture and a thin, edible rind.
Originally inspired by Fontina, Fontal is a more modern and widely produced variant, offering a gentler and more uniform taste compared to the stronger, earthy notes of traditional Fontina Valdostana. It is not PDO-protected, meaning it can be made across Italy and beyond, often crafted to a consistent, high-quality standard.
Thanks to its silky and melt-in-the-mouth consistency, Fontal is a popular choice for fondue, pasta fillings, gratins, and panini, as well as being delicious when sliced and served with cured meats and fresh fruit. Its versatility and delicate taste make it an approachable cheese for all palates, from everyday cooking to gourmet cheese boards.
