18.01.2022 Hi Everyone! We have been receiving hundreds of emails and messages about the fact that you can no longer find our cheese in Woolworths in Australia. Unfortunately despite being one of their best sellers the need to rationalise their offering was greater. To whilst we are disappointed with the decision, the good news is that we are still available in most independent supermarkets such as IGA, Foodworks, Foodlands, Farmer Jacks etc. And if the independent supermarket near you doesn't stock your favourite flavour you can often get them to bring it in for you if you ask. Just let them know the Honey Pistachio order code is 685350 and they will be able to find it. Thanks for all your support and we look forward to launching some new products this year.

15.01.2022 We get a lot of inquiries from people in Australia wanting to know where to buy our cheese, so for the record, you can buy Moondarra Apricot & Almond, Honey Pistachio, Sweet Chilli and Garlic & Chive in Woolworths in the Dairy Case (where you buy shredded cheese and dips) as well as IGA and independent retailers who usually stock a larger range.
15.01.2022 Come and see us at The Good Food &Wine show this weekend at the Sydney Showgrounds. Mention you saw this post and we will give you a free cheese with every show special purchase.
15.01.2022 Finally after a few schedule changes I can confirm that Moondarra Cheese is appearing on Foxtel tonight. Our segment will be airing in the delicatessen episode at 8:30pm on Tuesday the 21st of June, 6:00am and 3:30pm on the 22nd of June, and 2:30pm on Sunday the 26th of June. I think there is only around 6 minutes of us, so look out or you may miss it.

13.01.2022 Hi Everyone, The National Farmers Federation of Australia on behalf of Australian dairy farmers has started a petition to reclaim the use of milk from plant based drinks such as soy, rice and almond. As we all know almonds cant lactate and therefore should not be called milk. As a company that relies on real dairy milk for our future, we would encourage you to visit the page at the link below and sign the petition.
12.01.2022 Struggling to think of something new to make this week for dinner? Why not try this delicious retro take on stuffed chicken breasts. Yum! Moondarra Apricot & Almond Cream Cheese stuffed chicken breasts with mash and veggies. (Serves 4) Ingredients:... 700g chicken breasts, trimmed of excess fat 120g Moondarra Apricot & Almond Cream Cheese, cold 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil teaspoon sea salt Green beans, steamed Mash potato 1/3 cup toasted almonds, chopped Lemon wedges to serve Method: Preheat oven to 200C or 180C fan-forced. Using a small sharp knife, hold each chicken breast in your hand firmly and make a 1.5 cm incision at the top of the thickest part of the breast in the centre, lengthwise through the breast. Be careful not to push the knife completely through or cut yourself. Push a wedge of cheese into the pocket in each breast, salt both sides and set aside. Heat oil in a heavy based oven-proof fry pan over a medium heat, add chicken breasts and brown all over turning every minute for about 8-10 minutes. Place pan in oven and finish cooking for 10 minutes for thicker breasts. Remove pan from oven, cover chicken with foil and allow to rest for 8 minutes. Slice and serve scattered with chopped almond, and parsley. Serve with vegetables, mash and lemon wedges.
