  
Named "Best of Show" at the 1996 American Cheese Society Convention, Bluebonnets come packaged as three one-ounce, gumdrop sized pieces of surface ripened blue goat cheese. Their small size gives them a very high surface to volume ratio, and creates a distinctively sharp blue bite. The unusual size of the chevre adds a whimsical and very welcome touch to any cheese board. NOTE: We don't normally recommend it, but these logs can be frozen for six months with very little adverse effect. You may notice a slight separation between the paste (center) and the ripened area inside the rind, but it's preferable to allowing the cheese to over-ripen in the refrigerator if you intend to keep them for more than a few weeks
