Brie and Cam boxes

[arkc]

I just called Steve.  The size we would order is 5 inches in diameter AND the sides are cardboard.

The top and bottom are wood. 

Thoughts?

Yes, I know the box exactly. I really want a wood box. Presentation, ripening, stabilizing longer and baking possibilities are 4 good reasons. Can we wait until next week when I will get the sample from the French people? They are trying to arrange special pricing for me.

I also prefer all wood.
I can wait.

Thanks Annie for calling him my phone was down.

You are welcome Steff.  And that makes 3 that prefer wood. 

Sounds like you're wheeling and dealing Yoav.  You get a gold star.
Let us know what you find out next week. 

We can either order then or regroup and re-attack!

I got stuck at "baking possibilities". It is 8am and my stomach is craving baked camembert with garlic cloves... ok, back to my cereals

I would rather have all wood as well.

[iratherfly]

A gold star? Love it. Do you need the mailing address for it? 

Yes, waiting for some samples and price list. Also it looks like they have agreed to do a 350-400 quantity instead of their minimum 7,000.

[arkc]

I'm crossing my fingers for us.

has anyone heard any more about this?

[iratherfly]

Sorry, I have had some problem with the provider. They had ridiculous minimum orders so I am looking elsewhere

I am interested in buying some of this round wood boxes or containers for the camembert and brie. Can someone let me know if they are still available please?
thanks. Happy Cheesemaking
