i have to agree Caroline is the best value for the money here and also carries a few difficult products of good quality such as Monterrey Jack, heavy whipping cream or sour cream I am a recent resident in Chiang Mai. Can you please tell me where I can buy these cheeses? I can't recall seeing them in Tops, but perhaps I just missed them? I really miss my cheese and have only seen Philly as something recognisable! There must be Bakery Suppliers, or a few of them up there. Cheapest place for Cheese - Cheddar [2kg block] Edam [2kg block] Butter [2kg block] As well as the only place I have found Raisins, Sultanas, mixed peel, Cooking Choc, Marzipan again all in 2kg packs.. + many bakery items, glass ware, alum foil plates/dishes, all types of cake and bread baking tins, cake containers/cake boxes, the list is endless + a lot cheaper than a local supermarket on item supermarkets stock. How about Smoked dry cure Canadian Ham, Paris sliced off the bone ham, Salami, again all in large 2kg packs, but around 200 baht per kg Myself live out in the sticks 50km from BKK and there are 3 I use, on the way to BKK…. All 3 in their windows have different sized mixer, the smallest being a BIG home use, to a bake house type. Edited by ignis, 2008-10-20 07:19:51. #28Posted 2009-07-03 16:11:53
What about HomeMade-Cheese Co. ?
they make good products and i understand they are working with 5* hotels and bakeries as suppliers. they also sell retail and do delivery. I think their price is quite good and the product is made in Bangkok by FARANG'S... Just give it a try, i know it is much much better quality then the proccesed CAROLINE sh*#t. www.homemade-cheese.com Attached is their price and product list...

I was surprised at run of the mill British Cheddar costing 300bht in Tescos in Thailand when it costs 2gbp (100bht at the time) in England.
Whereas a tin of Thai sourced tuna costs the same in Tescos in England as it does in Thailand 35 bht or 70pence. Surely shipping costs are the same. Edited by sanmiguellight, 2009-07-12 20:35:53. #30Posted 2010-02-09 23:58:09
Look at Siam Milk. They are in chonburi and sale Tilsiter and Gouda 1kg-Rounds for 345,-/365,- Baht. Also they sale 100g packs for 99,- Baht.
Last week a meet the owner in Pattaya (Carrefour) and it can be that they have in some weeks a small stand inside Carrefour for try the cheese. I like the taste of both, but let it stay some weeks more in the fridge. Edited by snowgard, 2010-02-10 00:17:09. #31Posted 2010-02-10 00:33:29
I think you have the wrong supplier. As I am involved in this trade I see that a few suppliers are taking advantage of the current situation. Many imported and local food products are getting more expensive, but not that much. Gerd I noticed a while ago that my favorite Cheddar (small package) doubled price in the supermarkets. The other cheeses also went up. I don't know the real european cheese as it was always so expensive that I feel rip off and didn't buy them. Dont know why the large hike in imported cheese,but it was always 40-50% dearer than prices in the UK,which I always thought was due to imported tax prices,these new prices are making it a need to boycott at these astronomical prices,for what is a basic food. |
