Mascarpone, mascarpone is basically the milk and the cream are brought together, they coagulate, and you gotta get rid of the liquid. You're left with this rich fluffy mass of milk solids. Mascarpone is so thick, it's like, sticks to the roof of your mouth. This one is really good. Texturally it doesn't have any graininess, and it's got that foundation of sweetness. I really like it in dessert applications and I really like it In lieu of cream in pasta dishes. This is a great mascarpone, not an easy cheese to find, so now's your chance to try it.
