Camembert Snacks: Perfect Harmony Of Cheese, Nuts & Prosciutto

Credit: MediaPartisans

Camembert comes from the village of the same name in Normandy, France, and as the story goes, it was first created by a farmer in 1791. It’s a soft cheese with a very unique flavor and strong smell, and can be eaten just as it is or baked in the oven. But we’ve decided to take things a step further and create something with this gooey delicacy that combines some other interesting flavors into a snack you won’t soon forget.
