Matching Creamline's cheeses with festive film characters
As the holiday season approaches, what better way to enjoy a classic Christmas film than with a perfectly matched cheese board? Creamline's cheese selection offers everything you need for a festive pairing that complements your favourite on-screen personalities. Let’s dive into some fun cheese and character pairings that will bring your Christmas movie nights to life!
1. Buddy the Elf (Elf)
Cheese match: Cheshire Cheese Company's Cranberry Truckle
Just like Buddy’s love for all things sweet, this cranberry cheese is an indulgent delight. With its unique festive sweetness, this cheese perfectly matches Buddy’s bubbly personality and penchant for sweet treats.
2. Ebenezer Scrooge (A Christmas Carol)
Cheese match: Black Bob Extra Mature Cheddar
Strong, bold, and a little sharp—this cheddar is a perfect representation of Scrooge’s (initially) gruff exterior. This one really is a classic, so make sure you grab it for your next cheeseboard.
3. Kevin McCallister (Home Alone)
Cheese match: Caramelised Onion and Rioja Cheddar
This cheese packs a playful punch with a blend of sweet and tangy flavours, much like Kevin’s clever tricks to outwit the burglars. It’s a real crowd-pleaser, just like this family favourite film.
4. The Grinch (How the Grinch Stole Christmas)
Cheese Match: Shamrock - Irish Whiskey & Stem Ginger Cheese Truckle
This deep green coloured truckle wouldn’t look out of place in the Grinch’s cave in Who-Ville! With its bold, unique flavours – this award-winning cheese is sure to be a cheeseboard winner.
Creating your festive cheeseboard
Complement your cheese selection with chutneys, biscuits, and crackers from Creamline’s deli range, such as caramelised red onion chutney or ale and mustard biscuits for cheese. Add a bottle of mulled wine or sparkling juice for the ultimate festive treat.
