Gruyère Candle

A wheel of Alpine comfort, carved in wax. Meet the Gruyère - a nutty, buttery wedge of Switzerland's most beloved mountain cheese, hand-poured by an Italian family atelier in Puglia that has been shaping wax into trompe-l'oeil since 1840. Six generations of craft, down to the dimpled rind and the marbled interior you almost want to shave over a risotto. Plate it next to the Vino Primitivo and the Baguette for a cheeseboard that never spoils. Slip it under a cloche for a quiet kitchen still life. Fondue not included; imagination encouraged. Burn sparingly. Keep always.
