La Bonne Vie Camembert
La Bonne Vie Camembert — a soft-ripened cow's milk cheese made in Michigan in the French tradition. Buttery with a creamy and rich texture. Where Brie is mild and buttery, Camembert tends toward a funkier, earthier depth. Bring to room temperature and set out on a board with honey, fresh pears, and prosciutto, or bake for a warm, crowd-pleasing appetizer. Try with: Sauvignon Blanc · Pinot Grigio · Merlot · Champagne.
$9.98
La Bonne Vie Camembert 8 Oz is a camembert made in Michigan from pasteurized cow's milk and cream. Buttery, creamy, rich. Bring it to room temperature before serving for the best texture — the paste should be soft and yielding.
An elegant hors d'ourve with crackers and fruit. This cheese is also delicious when baked with fruits or olives.
Best For
An earthy alternative to Brie on cheese boards — Camembert's deeper, funkier flavor stands up well to bold accompaniments like chutney, olives, and cured meats. Bake it whole in its box for a warm, melty centerpiece.

About La Bonne Vie
La Bonne Vie — "the good life" in French — was created to bring French-inspired cheeses to everyday meals and gatherings. The brand produces Brie, Camembert, chèvre, crème fraîche, and specialty cheeses across creameries in Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota, Colorado, and California, using traditional French techniques adapted for American milk.
The focus is approachable quality — cheeses that make simple moments with food, family, and friends a little better.
What is the difference between Brie and Camembert?
Both are soft-ripened, bloomy-rind cheeses, but Camembert tends to be earthier and funkier than Brie, with a deeper mushroomy flavor — especially when fully ripe. Camembert is also traditionally sold in smaller wheels.
Is this Camembert pasteurized?
Yes. La Bonne Vie Camembert is made from pasteurized cow's milk and cream.
How do I know when Camembert is ripe?
Press the center gently — ripe Camembert yields to pressure and feels soft throughout, not just at the edges. A slight ammonia smell at the rind is normal; a strong one means it's over-ripe.
