The local cheese production at Lekker is a
standout feature of their brand. Sourcing milk from Friesian heifers, a breed
known for high milk yield, in the rich dairy region of Eldoret, the company
crafts its signature Gouda. This cheese comes in several variations, catering
to different tastes and culinary uses. Some popular options include plain young
and mature Gouda, as well as flavored versions with ingredients like cumin,
black pepper, fenugreek, and rosemary.

The process of making Gouda involves
several steps, from curdling the milk to aging the cheese wheels. The aging
process is particularly important as it determines the flavor and texture of
the cheese, ranging from the mild, creamy taste of a young Gouda to the more
pronounced, nutty flavor of a mature one.

In addition to their local products,
Lekker.co.ke serves as an importer for a wide range of European cheeses under
the Grand'Or brand. This line provides Kenyan consumers with access to a
diverse selection of international cheeses. The imported collection includes:

• Gouda and Cheddar: These are
  staples in the Grand'Or collection, offering a taste of the European
  versions of these popular cheeses.
• French Cheeses: The selection
  includes iconic French varieties such as Brie and Camembert,
  both known for their soft, creamy textures and distinctive rinds.
• Danish Blue: This is a type of
  blue-veined cheese with a semi-soft texture and a sharp, salty flavor, a
  great option for cheese platters or as a culinary ingredient.
