(Updated News Canada) Foodie cheese-makers have created what they hope will be an indulgent addition to your Christmas menu — a Stilton cheese made of real gold.
Clawson Stilton Gold will sell for £60.87 per 100g slice (Approx CND $99), or £608 a kilo (Approx CND $985) — that’s 67 times more pricey than regular Stilton.
Taking the title of the most expensive UK cheese ever made it would even cost £6 just for the cheese to top one cracker.
Makers Clawson say the premium white Stilton is so expensive because it’s shot-through with a combination of real edible gold leaf, real gold-liqueur.
They claim to have already been contacted by a Gulf-based oil sheikh and a famous pop star desperate to add a piece of the unique cheese.
Long Clawson Dairy spokesperson Janice Breedon said: “We wanted to create something special, a unique Stilton cheese, for the Christmas market.
“You can see the gold clearly in the slices and we’ve not been shy with how much gold we’ve put in the batch.
“It’s Britain’s blingiest cheese but, judging by the enquiries we’ve had, I’d say most of it will be leaving the country before Christmas.”
