Ugly Duck Fine Foods' Fig & Fennel Paste delicately balances fresh figs with aromatic fennel seeds, elevating this classic cheese companion to new heights. The subtle infusion enhances the figs' natural floral notes, creating a sophisticated paste that pairs beautifully with goat's cheese, delicate soft cheeses, and bold blues.

Working with small-scale growers from the Sunshine Coast, they rescue super-ripe figs at their peak of flavour, ensuring zero farm waste while capturing the perfect sweet-aromatic balance. This thoughtful approach results in a paste that's both sustainable and sublime - a must-have addition to any traditional cheese platter.
