Our famous Giant Welsh cheese advent calendar is back!
With a total of over 4.2 kilograms of cheese and measuring over a metre in width, the Giant Welsh Cheese Advent Calendar is the thing of cheese super-fans’ dreams, and luckily it can still fit in your fridge!
Packed with 24 individual truckles of artisan Welsh cheese from 7 different cheesemakers, the calendar is a celebration of Welsh cheesemaking, with contents ranging from creamy soft cheeses that would rival any French Brie, to punchy, crowd-pleasing Cheddars and lip-smacking blues.
The calendar is made up of 4 triangular boxes, each measuring 51cm in width, 32.5cm in height and 11cm in depth. These stack together to create one giant triangle, with a total width of 102cm and total height of 65cm.
The individual boxes are designed to fit into your fridge. In order to keep the cheeses chilled in transit, and to allow easier storage of the 24 truckles, we supply them in insulated boxes alongside the triangular advent calendar sections, so you can load each of the triangles with cheese as you work your way through the month.
Since it’s launch a couple of years ago, our legendary Giant Welsh Cheese Advent Calendar has been featured in countless publications and articles, including in The Telegraph, The Metro, Hello Magazine, The Independent, The Evening Standard and Wales Online. Buy yours today to see what the fuss is all about!
Our advent calendars will be ready for dispatch from November 21st, so please select a delivery date of November 22nd onwards at the checkout. All cheese will have best before dates that are after Christmas.
