The Claxstone Smooth Blue, produced by Long Clawson Dairy in Leicestershire, England beat out 4,285 other cheeses to be declared the "supreme champion" at the 116th edition of the International Cheese Awards Nantwich last week.

Cheeses were submitted from 27 countries.

The cheesemakers describe their blue as soft, balanced, creamy, and mild. Milk used for the cheese comes from cows that are left to graze on some of the greenest pastures in Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire.

The Claxstone series is available at upscale British grocer Waitrose.

Other winners this year included the Extra Creamy Gorgonzola produced by Arrigoni in Italy which took the title of Nantwich Reserve Supreme Champion, and the UK's Belton Cheese which took the National Westminster trophy for the highest number of gold awards.

Retailer Marks & Spencer won the Supreme Retailer Award for its extensive cheese selection.

You knew it was coming. Behold the ‘cronut burger’

Visitors to the largest fair in the world will be able to tuck into the cronut burger.Visitors to the largest fair in the world will be able to tuck into the cronut burger.It was just a matter of time. In fact, given the meteoric popularity of the trendiest and hottest pastry in the world right now, it could even be said it's a little late in coming.

At the largest fun fair in Canada this month, visitors will be able to partake in what food pruveyor Epic Burgers and Waffles acknowledges is a "heart-stopping" creation that sandwiches a hamburger patty between two pieces of cronut clones, the hybrid croissant-donut pastry made famous by a French chef in New York this spring.

The Maple Bacon Jam Cronut Burger will become available when the fair -- the traditional marketplace for freakshow foods -- opens August 16 at the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto.

The same purveyor also made headlines in 2011 when it created the Krispy Kreme burger.

The cronut is the brainchild of French chef Dominique Ansel in New York, a pastry that has circumvented the world within mere months of its launch in May, with copycat replicas being produced in Asia, Australia and Europe in both high-end pastry shops and most recently, a major corporate brand.

In South Korea, the Dunkin' Donuts chain debuted its version of the cronut which they called the "New York Pie Donut." In Manila, the cronut was launched as a "Donut croissant."

In response to the stratospheric popularity of his butter bomb pastry which draws pre-dawn lineups outside the New York bakery and which has created a cronut black market, Ansel trademarked the term 'cronut.' - AFP/Relaxnews, August 10, 2013.
