Handmade in our dairy, these cheese slices truly put traditional rubbery cheese slices to shame. If you want next-Level, super oozy, Instagram-ready burger goodness, then look no further!
A gold award-winning blue cheese, Blacksticks is the original contemporary farmhouse blue cheese. Made with love, using traditional handmade methods, with rich milk produced by the herds of our family and friends all within a 10km radius of our Lancashire family dairy.
Total Weight: 160g
Our Blacksticks Mega Melts won Bronze for Sliced Cheese at the International Cheese & Dairy Awards 2021.
Allergens: Milk
Suitable for Vegetarians. Made with pasteurised milk
Nutritional Info: Per 100g Energy: 1643KJ/ 397KCAL, Fat: 33.5g, of which saturates: 22.2g, Carbohydrate: 2.4g, of which sugars: 0.1g, Fibre: <0.5g, Protein: 21.1g, Salt: 1.25g
The orange comes from Annatto which is created from the seeds of the achiote tree. Not only does it give Blacksticks a great all year round tan, it adds a subtle flavour that simply doesn't exist without it.
Blacksticks transforms any burger, whether it be beef, chicken or veggie.
To achieve a perfect ooze factor through the summer, pop the lid on your bbq when you'd topped your burger of choice with a Blacksticks slice, to allow the heat to get all the way around the slice.
For the rest of the year, pop under a hot grill for a couple of minutes.
Yes! It safe to eat and adds to the flavour. Personally, it'sone of our favourite parts...

All of our cheeses are handmade in our Farmhouse Dairy in rural Lancashire. The surrounding fields are grazed by the cows who provide our milk, many of whom are looked after by extended family. Our goat's milk comes from just down the road. We believe Lancashire and our surrounding area in particular make such a big difference to the quality of our cheese, alongside, of course the skill and experience of our wonderful team of cheesemakers.
