From August 15 through November 6, Kroger and its network of shops will carry the limited-edition 'Roasted Pumpkin Seed Brie,' which Fromager d'Affinois is happy to introduce. The famous brie created in the heart of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region is prepared with a thin skin, creamy interior, and is packed with crunchy pumpkin seeds. This Brie is unlike any other on the market, making it a unique addition to cheeseboards, the ideal seasonal filling for a grilled cheese sandwich, or an excellent gift for the holiday season.
The cheese fromager d'Affinois is extraordinarily creamy and delicious. It is offered in a 2-kilogram block and has all the brand's signature cheese qualities: it is mild, rich, and soft for spreading. It is sold at cheese counters and creameries.
