What's in the Box

Everything you need for an instant spread.

You get the board. You get the knife. You get our 4 best-selling cheeses. No guesswork, no overthinking, no last-minute scramble for something that pairs.

What's inside (~38 oz):

Serves 4 - 6 guests 

  • Wooden Acacia Cheese Board (14" x 8") with stainless steel knife
  • Cave-Aged Classic Brie (5.6 oz) - the soft, buttery wheel that converts skeptics in one bite
  • Tomato Herb Fromage (7 oz) - sun-dried tomato, basil, oregano, the spread our customers nicknamed "pizza cheese"
  • Smoked Cheddar (5 oz) - rich, smoky, sliceable, the firm anchor every cheese board needs
  • Honee Pistachio Chevre (8 oz) - sweet vegan honey, toasted pistachios, and creamy chèvre, the conversation-starter every cheese board needs

How to plate it:

Center the Brie. Spread the Tomato Herb Fromage on crackers. Slice the Smoked Cheddar into wedges. Set the Honee Pistachio Chèvre at the far end as the sweet finish. Pour the wine. You are done.

Soft. Spreadable. Firm. Sweet. Every texture and flavor a great cheese board needs, in one box.

100% dairy-free and vegan. Backed by Mark Cuban. Featured in the New York Times.

Shelf-life & Storage

Upon Arrival & Daily Storage:

  • Transfer to refrigerator immediately (35-40°F)
  • Keep refrigerated at all times
  • Remove 10-15 minutes before serving for optimal flavor and texture

After Opening:

  • Consume within 7 days for the best quality
  • Wrap in cheese paper or parchment paper
  • Store wrapped cheese in a partially sealed zip-top bag
  • Keep in the main refrigerator compartment (not the door)

Shelf Life:

  • Each cheese includes a white label with the Lot Number and "Best By" date
  • Do not freeze (freezing alters texture and compromises quality)

Can the Cheeses Be Frozen?

Yes. All of our plant-based chèvres and fromages can be frozen for up to 6 months. Our dips and spreads can also be frozen. Simply thaw in the refrigerator and stir once defrosted before serving. Consume within the number of days indicated on the packaging after thawing.

For best results, enjoy our aged and firm cheeses, including our Cave-Aged Classic Brie and Cave-Aged Truffle Brie, fresh from the refrigerator. Freezing may alter their texture and is not recommended for those styles.

How should I store my Rebel Cheese vegan cheeses?

When your order arrives, transfer your cheeses to the refrigerator right away to preserve freshness and flavor. Keep all cheeses refrigerated and remove them just before serving. For best quality, consume within 7 days of opening.

Aged Bries (Cave-Aged Classic Brie, Cave-Aged Truffle Brie): Brie needs airflow. Loosely wrap in cheese paper or parchment paper and store in the crisper. Apply a piece of wax paper to any cut surfaces to prevent them from drying out. Avoid tight plastic wrap, which can promote unwanted mold growth.

A note on brie rinds: Our cave-aged bries are made with living cultures. You may notice small mold spores or a light fuzz on the rind or inside the cheese. This is completely normal, a sign of authentic cave-aged craft, and safe to consume.

Fromages and Chevres: Securely wrap in cheese paper and seal the opening with tape or a sticker. If using wax paper, follow with a layer of plastic wrap.

Firm Cheeses: Wrap in cheese or wax paper and store in a partially opened plastic zip bag.

Dips and Spreads: We recommend keeping dips and spreads in their original containers.
