Description

The historic Petite Breakfast is now available in two fresh flavors: Petite Breakfast Chive and Petite Breakfast Everything, for a 3-pack you won't want to miss. 

We’ve been crafting Petite Breakfast Fresh Brie at Marin French since the late 1800’s. For over a century, this deliciously unique cheese has won the hearts of locals and visitors. What is a fresh brie? This cheese uses the same recipe and the same artisanal cheesemaking process as our other brie varieties but skips the aging room. The result is a fresh cheese that lacks a bloomy white rind and has a tangy flavor and slightly springy texture, reminiscent of cheese curds.

Petite Breakfast brie has a rich history, originally created as a protein-packed alternative for gold miners turned Bay Area dock workers in the late 1800’s. As the Gold Rush waned and the San Francisco Bay Area experienced a population boom, the demand created a locally legendary egg shortage. Our founder, Jefferson Thompson recognized this need and crafted a quick-to-market cheese with a clever name that just so happened to be delicious. Over 100 years later, there’s still nothing like it. 

So, whether you’re starting your day or savoring a late-night snack, Petite Breakfast is the perfect companion. Bring a taste of history to your table. 

    CRAFTED ON THE RANCH SINCE 1865

    And in the 160 years since, we’ve made award-winning wheels that connect people to the land, history, and legacy of a time and place.

    How long should the cheese be out of the fridge before serving?

    It is best to leave your cheese out 30-60 minutes prior to serving for optimal flavor and texture.


    There is white mold on my Petite Breakfast. Is this safe to eat?

    Petite Breakfast is safe to eat even if there is some white mold on the outside. The cheese briefly shares an aging space with our older Brie cheeses and may pick up some of the  cultures that form their rind. It can be enjoyed as is or, if you prefer, you can trim off the white rind.
