The classics
Squick squick cheese curds
La Trappe à fromage cheese curds are an undeniable regional jewel of Gatineau-Ottawa. It has a slightly salty paste that sings “squick squick” under the tooth, a distinctive texture sought after by gourmets. Winner of a CASEUS d’Or in 2006, making it the best fresh cheese curd in Quebec.
It is available in white, yellow or marbled, in blocks or curds in several flavours (in stores only):
- BBQ
L’Attrappe Coeur
Matured and prepared by our master cheesemakers, this cheese has a cream-coloured paste with a texture that varies from chalky to creamy, from the rind to the center. This
flowery crust-type cheese has a sweet aroma of fresh milk with hints of butter. L’Attrappe Coeur pairs perfectly with a white wine and a peach, apricot and maple butter.
Its name L’Attrappe Coeur comes from a play on words: La Trappe and the heart. The 180 gram wheel is offered in the shape of a heart. A must-have
flowery crust d’ici in a unique format that everyone will love!
L’Attrappe Coeur is available in the branches of La Trappe à Fromage located in Hull, Gatineau (2), Masson, Aylmer and Val-des-Monts, in all Métro markets in Quebec as well as in grocery chains in the Outaouais region.
