Cheese is often used as a garnish or topping for a variety of dishes, but 'Folios' are cheese cups from Lotito Foods that turn this dairy product into the base of an appetizer or side.
The patent-pending Parmesan, Cheddar and Jarlsberg cheese cups are lightly baked, which gives them a hard texture that makes them suitable for use as bowls. While these bowls can stand alone for serving, they are also incredibly versatile and could potentially even be added to the inside of a dinnerware bowl to infuse hot chili, pasta and soups with additional flavors as they melt.
The protein- and calcium-rich Folios are sold in packages of five with protective layers of paper in between each cheese cup.
