Bookham Cheese

Bookham Fine Foods are a Sussex based, family run company who pride ourselves on sourcing as many ingredients as possible locally and according to season. Selling direct to the public at Farmers' Markets has enabled us to gain a real feel for what people want and allowed us to tap into a rich and diverse pool of primary producers, many of whom have worked alongside us to create an authentic but adventurous product range, aimed at time-poor consumers looking for "convenience foods with a clear conscience."

We are best known for our award winning Twineham Grange Cheese, nicknamed Farmers' Hand after Brussels denied us the right to call it English Vegetarian Parmesan. After  making the cheese, we churn the remaining cream into our premium hand packed, award-winning South Downs Butter. With the whey, we make Ricotta.  We also making a new cheese called Sussex Charmer, this is a joint venture between ourselves and R.Harrison & Sons from Rudgwick. 

In addition to the cheese and butter, we make a range of traditionally rolled, fresh pasta products, notably fresh ravioli, long and short pasta and gnocchi. We also produce several award-winning pasta sauces. Currently, we are developing a range of  flavoured butters, flavoured gnocchi, pizzas and polenta and are even working with a local pig farmer to try and create a parma style ham.
