Learn all about The Sharpham Cheese cake and the cheese layers and how we make and what their flavours are:

Top Tier: SHARPHAM CAMEMBERT. Handcrafted in South Devon by us a Sharpham Dairy. Developed by Greg and Peter to celebrate 40 years of cheese making at Sharpham, our Camembert combines Normand methods with South Devon terroir to create its own character. Sharpham Camembert is a moist, soft, creamy, surface-ripened cow’s milk cheese, it is typically made in individual rounds which makes it perfect for baking. Camembert becomes creamy, oozing, and perfect for dipping when heated. Sharpham Camembert is a soft mould-ripened cheese with a smooth creamy body and slight grassy notes. It develops a complex earthiness with age.

Third Tier: SAVOUR Handcrafted in South Devon by us a Sharpham Dairy. Sharpham Savour is based on a young French Savoie-style cheese. It was made to celebrate 50 years of the area being designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It’s made from a mixture of 75% cow’s milk and 25% goats’ milk which produces a sweet, mellow flavour. The curds are washed before moulding creating a smooth texture. On maturing when young it has a soft and pliable texture, maturing to almost alpine style with age. Sharpham Savour is a washed curd cheese with a smooth texture. It has a sweet creaminess which develops a slight tang with age.

Second Tier: SHARPHAM BRIE Sharpham were the first to make a Brie style cheese in the UK and Sharpham Brie is made to the same recipe today as when it was first made in 1981. Handmade in Devon using pasteurised cow’s milk, the curds are hand ladled into large moulds, brined, and then left to mature to create a white bloomy rind. The beautiful buttercup yellow centre comes from cows grazing on the luscious South Devon pastures. Sharpham Brie is a mould-ripened cheese, firm, rich, and creamy when young, softening with mushroomy notes and a chicory finish with age.

Base Tier: SHARPHAM TICKLEMORE Sharpham Ticklemore was the brainchild of Robin Condon. Named after the street in Totnes, home of the famous cheese shop. Ticklemore is a semi-hard goat’s cheese handmade from fresh pasteurised goat’s milk. Its distinctive shape comes from being moulded in a colander. This helps it develop a wonderful white bloomy rind with a bright white chalky centre. Sharpham Ticklemore is a semi-hard goat’s cheese that has a light and gently lemony flavour with herbaceous notes, a crumbly texture and a white bloomy mould to the exterior.
