Is Camembert Cheese Vegan?

Was Camembert cheese one of your favourites and now that you are vegan or thinking of going plant-based are wondering whether you can still enjoy this dairy cheese?

Fear no more as there are many vegan camembert cheese options available around the world today.

Camembert has a soft inner which is creamy and is surrounded by a ripened moldy case that grows over time when it's ripened.

Originally from Normandy in North West France and is made like most other dairy cheeses from cows milk.

So how do you enjoy camembert if it's made from the lactations of a cow?

Well first off, Penicillium candidum mold, is what creates its bloomy rind and is made in the exact same way with vegan camembert cheese.

It is only the inside of the cheese which uses a plant based protein rather than cows milk which is what differs.
