FAQs

How do I order?

Follow us on Instagram to stay updated on new batch releases. We post our seasonal offerings in our stories as they become available, so you’ll always be in the know. When the time comes, simply return to our site to place your order. As a small-batch cheese company, we offer our products on a first-come, first-served basis, so we recommend calling dibs and placing your order while your favorites are still in stock. We make our cheeses in large batches every few months and sell until we are sold out.

Cheesecakes are ready for pickup and delivery as soon as they’re made available on our site. When you see a cheesecake at the very top of our shop without the word “Preorder” in its name, it’s ready to go!

Want to plan ahead? You can preorder any cake with at least one week’s notice—just look for “Preorder” in the product name. We’ll be delighted to whip one up (or a few!) just for you.

Can Your cheeses be melted?

This is a great question! Our cheeses are crafted to be enjoyed in their purest, simplest form as this highlights the unique richness of their natural cream. They do not melt like conventional cheeses, as we refrain from adding melting agents. So while our cheeses won’t get stretchy when warmed, they do make beautifully creamy versions of your favorite pasta sauces, soups, stews and more. Simply blend or stir our cheeses into your favorite dishes and watch your recipes blossom.

Can i send your cheeses and cakes as gifts?

You absolutely can! Each of our cheeses and cheesecakes is carefully wrapped and adorned with foraged wildflowers, sun-dried citrus segments, pretty leaves, and other handpicked botanicals. We take great care in delivering your order, ensuring it arrives as thoughtfully as it was prepared. Whether for a special occasion or simply to brighten someone’s day, you’ll be sure to leave a lasting impression.

are your products vegan?

All of our cheeses and cheesecakes are made with the milk and cream we craft from cashews, and the live cultures we use are sourced from plants. While our signature cheesecake crust contains honey, we’re happy to accommodate honey-free options upon request. The rest of our ingredients are fully plant-based.

do you make Gluten-free cheesecakes?

We sure do! While our original crust does contain gluten, we’re happy to make gluten free varieties upon request. Send us a note at info@moonbotanica.com at least one week ahead, and we’ll create something special for you.

How long do the cheeses and Cheesecakes last?

Our cheeses are fresh rather than aged, and are best enjoyed within 5 days. As for our cheesecakes, enjoy them within 4 days.
