Absolutely Delicious! - Edit
These vegan cheeses and chocolates are some of the most creamy and delicious I’ve ever had. Highly recommend. Rod and Craig make a great team. Extremely knowledgeable with their craft, helpful, and happy to answer any questions. The chocolate salami with strawberry sauce is my favorite along with the Brie cheese. YUM!

I love actual cheese... and this was better! - Edit
I'm not vegan, or even vegetarian. When I heard that this was going to be a vegan party with vegan gourmet cheese I was sort of like...ok... I went in for a taste and I'll tell you what, it was amazing, every bite rich, creamy, flavorful. Really amazing. Thank you to the team at cultured creamery for bringing me over to the vegan cheese side...

I can't believe it's not cheese - Edit
Tried many of the cheeses and it's incredible how flavorful and cheese like that are. Brie that tastes like brie, camembert that tastes like camembert. Blue cheese! I have never had non dairy cheese as good as this ever. Well done!

So incredible - Edit
I can't eat regular cheese and this cheese was unbelievably good. It felt like such a huge treat. Then after eating the chocolate for Valentine's Day was just amazing. Highly recommend.

Delicious cheeses and awesome chocolates - Edit
I am French and a master chef currently making a living as a private chef to celebrities. As such, I have a nose for authentic and well crafted foods. Rod and Craig, the partners behind Cultured Creamery, make such foods. Rod's cheeses are the closest in taste, complexity and overall quality to the ones I grew up eating in my homeland. His cheeses are so good, it is hard to believe that they are vegan.

Anyone reading this should drop everything they are doing and rush over to Cultured Creamery to have their amazing cheeses and chocolates!

In this case, Cultured Creamery has done an extraordinary job of creating cheeses and chocolates that are vegan with tremendous flavor! I can’t recommend this place enough!

Delicious vegan cheese! Need I say more? - Edit
Cheese is my vegan Achilles heel and I'm always on the lookout for great alternatives to traditional dairy based cheese. Most of them fall short.
Read moreCultured Creamery, though, is amazing.
The cheese actually tastes and looks like real cheese. I served it to some friends and they had no idea that it was vegan until I told them. Win!
The owner is super chill and will offer you tastes and explain how he makes the cheese in the traditional french style using traditional enzymes and aging processes. It's super cool.
They also have delicious chocolate.
Pros: Tastes like real cheese, Looks like real cheese
