Trader Joe's new Double Cream Brie is crafted for the grocery store chain by a third-generation cheesemaker, who managed to achieve a perfectly balanced taste and texture. The result is a luxuriously creamy soft-ripened cheese that's particularly well-suited to holiday party hors d’oeuvre spreads, and even the dessert table. For instance, Trader Joe's suggests pairing the entire wheel of brie with some [puff pastry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheddar-parmesan-cheese-snackers) to create a showstopping baked brie appetizer, or popping on a [charcuterie board](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cotswold-double-gloucester-cheese) with some truffle salami and rustic crackers for the ultimate pre-party snack. Or, simply pair it with your favorite glass of vino for a quick and easy dessert.
