Gorgonzola DOP dolce – 750 gr
The “little brother” of the traditional Gorgonzola DOP, now called Piccante, Gorgonzola DOP Dolce was created in the mid-20th century and quickly became the most popular version among consumers. Technically, the main difference from the Piccante is its higher whey content, which makes the cheese softer, even spreadable, and its flavor more delicate. For this same reason, it cannot withstand long aging, making it a semi-fresh cheese. Both industrial and artisanal production exist: in the latter, the cheese is made entirely by hand rather than by machinery, resulting in a softer and creamier final product, known as “scappante” by connoisseurs.
