Kapiti Cheese, owned by Fonterra, is inspired by its New Zealand heritage, known for its original flavours. The award-winning Kapiti Kikorangi and Tuteremoana Cheddar have secured places on the Kiwi cheeseboard alongside acclaimed peers. Recently added was Kapiti Baby Kikorangi, a 200g creamy, blue-based cheese with a mild flavour, of premium quality and taste consistent with the rest of the Kapiti range.
