Bocconcini di Bufala

Smaller bite-sized water buffalo mozzarella balls, perfect for salads, skewers, pasta, lunch boards, appetizers, or snacking straight from the container.

Fresh, local, and made with simple ingredients, our Water Buffalo Mozzarella is proudly made in Canada at Natural Pastures Cheese Company in Courtenay, British Columbia, on Vancouver Island.

Inspired by the traditional Italian method used to make mozzarella di bufala, our Water Buffalo Mozzarella is made with fresh water buffalo milk from local farms. Water buffalo milk is naturally rich and creamy, giving this cheese its signature porcelain-white colour, soft texture, clean milky flavour, and delicate fresh finish.

Our Water Buffalo Mozzarella is made with only a few simple ingredients: water buffalo milk, microbial culture, enzyme, and salt. It is also naturally A2 protein, which many people look for when choosing dairy products.

Each batch is crafted with care using traditional cheesemaking methods. The curd is gently stretched to create the smooth, tender texture that makes fresh mozzarella so special. The result is a fresh Canadian cheese with Italian inspiration, made from local milk and crafted right here on Vancouver Island.

    On Vancouver Island, food has a way of carrying the story of where it comes from. For Michael Tchao, his journey around the Island is not just about travel.
