This depends on cheese capacity (yes, it's thing). The box includes 6 cheeses with 100 grams of each. That can be enough for up to 4 or even 6 people. The wine totals around 600ml - so just short of a bottle. You can add an extra set should you wish.

Hell yeah! We are the very first cheese delivery company to insulate our boxes, so our chilling packs work a treat keeping your cheese in perfect condition until you have a chance to get it in the fridge/eat it immediately on the doorstep. Not judging here!

Well it doesn't worry us cheesy amigo! That's because your cheese will be left as per your safe place instructions entered at checkout, and all the spiel about the insulating and chilling...well that applies for up to 48hrs. Your cheese is gonna be ok...as are you.

As long as you have left a mobile number and/or email for the recipient, they will get delivery updates (although if it is a surprise best to enter your own), with an option to enter their own safe place instructions...you're off the hook, and your recipient's neighbours will not be getting free cheese.

We love the idea of ordering the perfect amount of cheese without lots of leftovers because cheese can be a bit of a diva, and we strive to have it at its absolute best when we deliver it. However, if you do have some cheese left, keep it happy by wrapping it with the paper it arrived in (or any wax paper you may have) and in a separate compartment (so it doesn't dry out) in the fridge (not the coldest part)...did I mention cheese was a bit of a diva? If possible, keep your blues away from other perishables as it may try and turn them blue too! Remember to take your cheese back out of the fridge 1-2 hours before you're ready to tuck in to get it to room temperature – it can taste a little bland if too cold!

Soft cheese - up to 1 week
Blue cheese - up to 1 week
Hard cheese - up to 2 weeks

We would always recommend eating the cheese we deliver to you as soon as possible though as that is when it will taste the best!

This is not official advice and we recommend referring to the NHS website to make sure you’re comfortable with what you’re eating during pregnancy. As a general rule of thumb, you can eat any cheese as long as it’s totally cooked through – so you don’t have to give up cheese toasties! There is also plenty of evidence suggesting that hard, matured cheeses are also safe, even if they are unpasteurised. You should avoid all soft cheeses (unless fully baked through), including those with washed or bloomy (white) rinds and soft blue cheese, unless otherwise advised by a health care worker. Be aware of any uncooked puddings, such as cheesecake or ice cream, which may contain unpasteurized cheeses and milk.

At cheesegeek, we try and use the minimal amount of packaging needed to keep your cheese safe. Any packaging that we do use is carefully thought through. For more info on how to reuse or recycle your packaging, head to ourpackaging blog.

If you have any allergies, to be on the safe side, it's best to email in and check with our Geeks. The email address is hello@thecheesegeek.com
