In the international kit, the ingredients can be used to make the following cheeses: mozzarella, ricotta, mascarpone, halloumi, Greek-style cheese, Scottish crowdie, labneh, goat’s cheese, queso blanco, and paneer!

#4 US cheese gift basket

Shop at Food52

If you are looking for gifts for cheese lovers who don’t have time time to make their own cheese. Or those who are (let’s be honest) simply too lazy or impatient to make the cheese themselves, cheese gift baskets are the way to go.

The Jasper Hill Farm cheese gift baskets are available in seven different styles and may include ten different kinds of cheese (depending on which style you choose).

But there is one drawback to this gift. Food52 only ships inside the US. So if you are looking for cheese lovers gifts for someone outside the US, you should go for the next cheese gift basket.
