Collected milk is pasteurized and transformed into cheese in our factories. Our Babybel® cheeses are then packaged in their unique wax shell.
The Laughing Cow® or Apéricube® is manufactured using pre-transformed dairy raw materials such as milk powder, butter, cream or cheese (cheddar, emmental, etc.). Thanks to the heat treatment process, the cheese can be kept at room temperature.
Boursin® and Kiri® are made from milk and cream. The taste and freshness of flavored varieties such as Boursin Garlic and Fine Herbs® will awaken the senses of older generations, while the gentle flavor and smooth texture of cooked and creamy Kiri®, will delight youngsters appreciative of good food.
The cheeses contain various elements conducive to good bone mineral density: protein, phosphorus, magnesium, zinc and vitamin D, among others; but they are also an excellent source of calcium. On average, Bel cheeses contain 120mg to 900mg of calcium per 100 grams of product.
