About The Product
Puglia Cheese Fior di Latte is a classic fresh cow's milk mozzarella produced by hand in Somerset West, made from 100% South African milk using the traditional Italian pasta filata technique. The curds are hand-spun in hot water until they achieve the characteristic smooth, elastic texture of authentic mozzarella, then formed into individual balls and packed fresh. The result is a clean, milky, lightly salted cheese with a soft, yielding texture and a delicate freshness that sets it apart from the firmer, lower-moisture mozzarella formats used in baking and pizza applications.
A versatile fresh cheese for restaurant, deli, and retail use, Fior di Latte suits both raw and lightly cooked applications where the freshness and texture of the cheese are central to the dish. Supplied in a 10 x 125g bucket format, it is a practical and elegant option for restaurants, delis, and specialty food retailers across Cape Town and the Western Cape looking for a locally produced, artisan fresh mozzarella with genuine Italian craft behind it.
About Puglia Cheese
Puglia Cheese was founded in Cape Town in 2010 by three Italian friends from the Puglia region, driven by a simple ambition: to bring authentic Italian mozzarella craft to South Africa. What began as a small artisan dairy quickly earned recognition, winning multiple awards at the South African Dairy Championships and becoming the first producer of burrata in the country.
Every cheese in the Puglia range is made by hand using traditional Italian methods, from fresh Fior di Latte and burrata to scamorza, ricotta, and a dedicated pizza mozzarella. Locally produced but authentically Italian in character, Puglia Cheese brings genuine artisan dairy quality to professional kitchens and retailers across South Africa.
