Cheese blends create a balance of tastes
The idea
A cheese blend combines more than one flavor and texture, which can change how a bakery item or filled appetizer eats. The name of a four-cheese blend does not establish the identity of every cheese in it. A smooth filling and a baked topping also behave differently at the table.
A practical next step
If the specific cheese matters to you, ask about the current blend rather than making a guess from its color.
