The Science Behind Proper Cheese Wrapping
Cheese is a living food — it continues to mature and evolve after cutting, producing gases and requiring a specific humidity level to stay at its best. Wrap cheese in cling film and you trap those gases, causing off-flavours and promoting mould growth. Wrap it in standard paper and it dries out too quickly. Cheese paper solves this by combining a waxed outer layer (which controls moisture loss) with a porous inner layer (which allows gas exchange). The result is a cheese that stays in better condition for longer — retaining its texture, flavour, and appearance. Our cheese wrapping paper is available in custom printed formats, allowing cheesemongers and delis to add their branding while still providing the technical performance their cheese requires.
