Green Bay, Wis. – Handcrafted Burrata has become increasingly popular with consumers who have embraced this fresh cheese, enjoying its milky flavor and creamy texture alone or as part of a delicious dish. As the fresh cheese category continues to be popular with consumers, BelGioioso has taken their award-winning Burrata one step further and added a delicate yet flavorful ingredient, Black Truffles.
BelGioioso Black Truffle Burrata starts with the freshest Wisconsin milk and the cheese is made to order just hours after milking. Each handcrafted mozzarella pouch is filled with a rich straciatella, its special creamy filling and a seasoning of Black Summer Truffles.
“Our Master Cheesemakers continually strive to evolve our cheeses to a higher level and this time we were honored to be recognized for our efforts by winning a Best of Class First Place award at the recent American Cheese Society contest,” says Gaetano Auricchio, Vice President of Sales. “As consumers continue to seek out new cheeses, Black Truffle Burrata from BelGioioso will add another delicious dimension to their choices.”
For a simple, yet striking appetizer, Black Truffle Burrata can be drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and served with slices of prosciutto and fresh warm bread. It’s also a unique alternative to Buffalo Mozzarella, in salads or as a topping on pizza.
BelGioioso Black Truffle Burrata is made to order and available in 4-ounce hand-formed balls, packaged in 8 oz. retail cups with water for an extended refrigerated shelf life of up to 37 days.
