Délice de Bourgogne is a special kind of cheese from the Burgundy region of France. It's made from cow's milk and was first created in 1975 by Jean Lincet at a cheese factory called Fromagerie Lincet. This cheese is known for being super creamy and soft. It's called a "triple-cream" cheese because extra cream is added during the making process. This makes it extra rich and smooth!
