So little hassle, so much reward...

Hi Smoultstars,
Life is meant to be easy!
Your Christmas shopping should be devoid of parking rage, people wandering aimlessly in front of you as you scurry from shop to shop only to find the 'same old same old' stuff parading as gifts.
You can have that on your doorstep in (Perth's coolest suburb) Maylands.
And you'll be interested to know that what's really trending now is the food gift.
Yep, amazingly people have enough 'stuff'.
But they're loving getting food gifts that they can enjoy themselves or with friends and family.
Drop in any day this week and quickly grab a stash of gifts for some of the faves in your life - not too quickly - remember to leave yourself time for a coffee!
We'll feature different items from our range each day of this week, so you can make your shopping decisions in a snap!
Today we have a fab range of Biscotti - a massive Christmas favourite.
It's perfect in any Christmas hamper and is a winner as a small gift.
So come on in and soak up the relaxorama that is Christmas shopping at Smoult's Larder.

Finally - it's happened to me...
Hi Smoultstars!
Yep, CeCe Peniston had it right...
Your new super-improved cafe is back and looking forward to being reunited with you!
The make-over is done, and we're chuffed to say it looks simply smashing.
This means you now have:

• Way more food choices (new chef Tracey Hogan has temptations a-plenty for you)
• A more comfortable cafe to wind your way through the day
  
• A proper brekky menu (starting next week)
  
• An expanded catering menu
  
• More cool gifts to buy for your besties

So come on in and soak up the olfactory exquisitry (we think this is a word) as soon as you can!

Hi Smoulstars!

Yep, we're suffering separation anxiety too...
It's all for a good reason though.
We're doing a make-over, with a shiny new kitchen going in.
This means you'll get:

• A proper brekky menu
• More food choices
• Expanded catering menu

You'll be able to get regular updates via our Facebook page. Builder Paul and the team are aiming to have us ready for the big reveal at the start of October.

Manchego Cheese is headed your way on Saturday
Hi Smoulstars! This week you'll get to sample some delish Manchego cheese at Smoult's Larder in Maylands.
Here are the essential Manchego Cheese Facts which will help you romp home in any quiz night:

• It's home is the La Mancha region of Spain
• Is made from sheep's milk
• Usually aged between 60 days and 2 years
• Has a distinctive flavour that is well-developed. Described as creamy with a slight 'piquancy'
• Bonus points...pinquancy means 'a pleasantly sharp and appetising flavour'.

Tastings will be available at Smoult's Larder from 10.30am-1.00pm (or until sold out).

Lock in 10 minutes to come in to Smoult's Larder to meet two cheese Super Heroes!
This Saturday you'll be able to team up with what we consider to be two super heroes of cheese - the luscious Delice Cremiers Truffle Cheese and the amazing Comte.

Delice Cremiers Truffle Cheese
This rich, cow’s milk cheese is made with whole milk enriched with cream. It has a dense, creamy texture similar to ice cream when young which gradually becomes softer due to the ripening action of the fluffy, white rind. The addition of truffle makes this cheese decadent and earthy. This cheese is at its best when the rind has slightly discoloured and the texture inside has become soft and luscious.

Comté Gruyere
Comte is a great cheese, with a nutty, earthy flavor and a creamy texture. It can be fab with your fave crackers or even used in cooking, such as with an indulgent bowl of mac and cheese or your weekend omelette.
4 Comte Facts

1. It's a raw milk cheese made from the milk of pasture-fed cows
2. The milk for each round of cheese can only come from within a few miles of the cheese maker.
3. The milk is delivered to the cheese maker daily and has to be used immediately,
4. There are practically 83 flavours, which can be savored while tasting Comté. But the main aromatic flavours that delicately linger on the palate are a balance of brown-butter and roasted-nut aromas and a sweet finish.

Doesn't get much better than that!
Tastings will be available from 10.30am-1.30pm (or until we sell out!)
See you Saturday..

Well - not ever...
But you don't necessarily have to go all the way to our beloved Manji if you're in need of some truffle action this Saturday...
You can pop into Smoult's Larder and sample some ridiculously good Great Southern Truffle Honey.
Black truffle flavours are infused into premium amber-coloured West Australian honey to create a beautiful, sweet truffle indulgence.
Tastings are available from 10.30am-1.30pm (or until sold out)
