Babybel, a French version of Dutch Edam cheese, has been sold internationally by 'The Bel Group, France' since 1952. In 1977, the company introduced Babybel's smaller version, 'Mini Babybel', a delightful snack packed with calcium and ready to eat anytime and anywhere.

The protective wax we use to coat our products is made of a blend of paraffin and microcrystalline waxes and colouring, which specifically contains no bisphenol A. It's “food safe” and meets very strict regulatory standards. It poses no health risk if accidentally ingested while you or your child snacks.

Mini Babybel ® is real cheese, made from pasteurised milk. It's made the traditional way, except that we use vegetarian rennet (not animal rennet) so it's vegetarian cheese.

One of the benefits of Babybel cheese is that it is low in fat. Each mini cheese contains only 6 grams of fat, making it a great snack option for those watching their fat intake. In terms of nutritional value, Babybel cheese is a good source of calcium, which is important for maintaining healthy bones and teeth.

Yes. It's made by a traditional cheese-making process, using just 4 ingredients for Babybel ® Original and Light: pasteurised milk, lactic ferments, vegetarian rennet and salt.

How many Babybels can I eat at once? Babybels are very handy to pop in a lunch box or have as a snack. They contain 140mg of calcium per Babybel so useful for increasing calcium intake. They also contain salt, so stick to only 1-2 per day.

Finally, natural rinds on cheeses like parmesan are ideal for use in cooking or broths - just not eating on their own. (They're just a bit too hard.) Can I eat the wax on cheese? We appreciate the enthusiasm but unfortunately, the wax isn't meant to be eaten.

Dogs should not consume Babybel cheese or any other dairy products in large quantities due to their lactose intolerance. Although small amounts of Babybel cheese might not cause immediate harm, it can lead to digestive issues such as diarrhea and stomach upset.
