Caprice des Anges
Also known as: Caprice des Anges cheese
Caprice des Anges is the fresh cheese of the Caprice des Dieux brand (Savencia): lightly salted, with a fresh cream taste, sold in a 200 g format.
Caprice des Anges (“whim of the angels”) is the fresh cheese of the Caprice des Dieux brand of the Savencia group. Unlike the classic Caprice des Dieux, it has no white bloomy rind and is not ripened.
The brand describes it as a fresh cheese, lightly salted, tasting of fresh cream, with a light, melting and velvety texture. It is made from French cow's milk and cream and sold in a 200 g format.
By type it is a fresh cheese, like cream cheese or mascarpone, so it is eaten young and does not keep long. Its name echoes the heavenly theme of Caprice des Dieux, whose first TV advertisement in 1968 featured little angels.
Caprice des Anges is spread on bread and crackers, served with herbs and vegetables, and added to salads and light dishes. Once opened, keep it in the fridge and eat it within a few days.
