Cheesy Lady for Hire

In addition to my work at GreenLeaf, I am available for hire as a Cheese Consultant. I help with menu creation and costing for restaurants, private chefs, and other parties. I create cheese platters, displays, pairings, and “cheese cakes” for weddings and other events. I host guided tastings and  pairing courses. And, beyond all that, I’m open to every and any cheese task you could throw my way!

For information on my background, please see my LinkedIn Page. For help, please contact me at bonnie.kaufman@gmail.com or (818) 606-6945.
