  • Publication number: 20060292265
    Abstract: A composite unripened curd cheese product is made by concomitantly side by side filling of distinct adjoining masses in a pot. A first mass may be a fermented milk base or at least one flavoring composition while a second mass is a fermented milk base. These masses are generally of contrasting colors and are arranged side by side such that there is no substantial migration of one mass into the other and each mass is accessible for consumption. To do this, the pot has a base, at least one sidewall extending from the base for defining the filling volume and an open top, and the masses are arranged along the sidewall so that each is accessible through the open top.
