3.5kg wheel of Cornish Yarg – A light textured, handmade cheese wrapped in fresh nettles. This is the base layer of the celebration cheese cake and is 25cm in diameter.
2kg wheel of Colston Bassett – Regarded as one of the best traditionally made naturally crusted Stiltons. Mature, with good blueing and rich, deep, herbaceous flavours that linger on the palate.
2 x 1kg wheels of brie – This is a delicious luxury brie. The taste is creamy and full-bodied with a wonderful character and complexity of flavour which is tangy and deliciously rich. This cheese may become ripe and runny so we recommend using cake boards and cake dowelling to support this layer (not included in the wedding cake).

750g truckle of Francis – A beautiful wash rind pungent cheese with a sticky rind which is richly-flavoured and generally gorgeous.
500g wheel of White Nancy Goats Cheese– A stunning handmade cheese from Pete Humphries at White Lake Cheeses near Shepton Mallet. Using milk from his own herd of 600 goats. Please note: this cheese is made from unpasteurised milk.
200g truckle of Godminster Oak-Smoked Vintage Organic Cheddar – Our award-winning Oak-Smoked Vintage Organic Cheddar, naturally smoked with sustainable oak chippings for 8-10 hours, full of wonderful smoky flavour
200g truckle of Godminster Heart-Shaped Vintage Organic Cheddar –as delicious as its larger sibling and the perfect way to spread the love on your special day…
HOW MUCH CHEESE PER PERSON AT A WEDDING?
When you have a delicious celebration cheese cake at a wedding or any other special occasion, you want to make sure that there’s enough cheese to go around for your guests. It is typically recommended that there should be approximately 80-100g of cheese per person (as you have to remember that not everyone will want as much, such as children). Our Godminster celebration cake is suitable for 25-35 people.
HOW IS A CHEESE WEDDING CAKE EATEN?
Cheese wedding cake can be cut in a similar way to a traditional wedding cake as it is also displayed in tiers. Therefore, a cheese wedding cake is usually eaten in slices with complimentary pairings (such as crackers, grapes and wine).
HOW LONG CAN YOU LEAVE A CHEESE WEDDING CAKE OUT?
The amount of time you can leave a cheese wedding cake out can depend on the temperature of your venue but they can typically be outside between one and two hours. However we always recommend keeping your cheese refrigerated as much as possible beforehand. Some of the soft cheeses may need cake boards and dowelling to keep them in the best condition if you want to leave your cheese cake tower fully assembled.
