If you thought baked Camembert couldn’t possibly get any better, think again. This show-stopping recipe tops the decadent French cheese with a wonderfully spiced caramel sauce and dried fruit. Our quality Schwartz spices give the sauce a depth and richness that brings the whole dish to life. Serve with crisp slices of green apple, and a crusty baguette and we promise this Baked Camembert will be gone quicker than you can say ‘Cajeta’.
