Hi I’m sourcing ingredients for chocolate mascarpone cheesecake.
Struggling to find 8% fat fromage frais. Please recommend a brand or an alternative ingredient
Thanks

Hello,
8% Fromage Frais was available in Waitrose – either Waitrose own brand or Rians La Faisselle brand (I’ve seen Rians on French Click as well).
However the fat-free fromage frais is available just about everywhere - so if you can’t get it I would substitute the fromage frais with 150ml of the fat-free fromage frais combined with 50ml extra thick double cream or full-fat crème fraîche.
