You will receive seven cheesemaking molds in this set, but it is not an actual “cheesemaking kit.” For small batch cheesemaking, I thought this was a lot more molds than I would ever use. I figured that I would share some of the molds with others, or that my grandchildren could use some at the beach. However, since these molds nest together, it then dawned on me that the extra molds can be placed on top of your cheese to use as a cheese press. These are well-made cheese molds and I like the pyramid shape. I look forward to using them.

I got this cut little set to make smaller fresh flavored cheeses that don't require pressing with heavy weights. They will be sturdy enough for this. They arrived in good condition. I will be hand washing and not putting in dishwasher.

These are the perfect size for small to medium size cheeses. Arrived in great shape and sealed in a bag. Will be using them this week and I'll post pictures. Great price for 7 baskets. Would recommend.

The holes do not drain as good as they could, so I have to use my 3inch vent fan for at least 12 hours to keep the surface from being too wet for the penicillium candidum mold to grow. Best to drain curds in colander with very small holes first.

This set of cheese molds will allow you to make a variety of cheeses in the size and shape appropriate to the style.When you begin making cheese, a single mold will do fine. You’ll be amazed enough that you end up with anything resembling cheese. But as you get better and want to expand your repertoire, you will want molds like these, with a shape suitable to the cheese you are making.When you buy a set like this, you may get more molds than you would ever use. On the other hand, this set is so inexpensive that it is still a bargain. You can easily spend half this much for each mold. So if you you want to use two for your batches, the rest of the molds are at no additional cost to you.These are as sturdy as any other cheese molds I have purchased. They hold their shape when the curds are pressed (cheese press not included!). Highly recommended.

These are very nice smaller cheese molds. The plastic is thick enough to hold its shape and not flex, and the drain holes are all very clean.I believe this shape of mold is generally intended to make one style of cheese (Valencay), but it could be used for a lot of other things, if not as traditionally. While it isn’t a rectangular block shape, it is close enough that it would work well for cheeses to be sliced into sticks or cubes (like paneer), or for tofu.If the shape of these molds will work for you, this is a nice set. 7 molds is more than most people will need, but it does offer some more flexibility (like using another mold as a weight). Since they nest in each other, storing 7 molds takes only a tiny bit more space than storing just one.

I eat a vegan diet, and have been wanting to experiment more with plant-based cheeses/cheez. I’ve made cashew cheeses and other spreads, and have been in the market for some cheese molds that will help me up my game and look classy for presentation.These are great!!! I like the shape of them, as they can look nice in this form on a charcuterie board or serving platter and would lend themselves well to cutting or spreading, depending on softness. The holes are helpful for fermentation of soft cheeses, but aren’t so big that firmer cheese would fall out.I ran these through the dishwasher to be sure they were truly dishwasher safe, and they did great. As you can see in my photo, they stack well for compact storage and sit nicely either up or down. Great set, and nice to support a Ukrainian company!
