Give your guests the gift of gooey cheese, a delicious appetiser with a little bit of table theatre thrown in. Bake camembert or brie cheese in this stoneware baker until it melts, ready to serve on a trivet as a table centrepiece for sharing and dipping with rustic bread.

If you have any leftover cheese - a fairly rare cheese scenario for us - use the baker as fridge storage. Tasty recipe suggestions include adding nuts and dried fruits, olive oil or truffle oils, herbs such as rosemary and thyme.
