Class Instructor

Sheridan, our instructor

Instructor for Fromagination’s cheese board classes, Sheridan is former actress, living in NYC, who moved back to Madison during the Covid-19 pandemic. She decided to experiment with a cheeseboard and developed what she calls “a quarantine hobby gone rogue.” She also created charcuterie boards and now has an Instagram account called “Shercuterie.”

Class Approach

We are always game for a cheese board, but creating one is a different story. Hence, Sheridan teaches a step-by-step approach to creating a beautiful and delicious cheese board arrangement using an artisan selection of cheeses, meats and accoutrements.   You will learn about each ingredient and the top tips and tricks on how to build a cheese board made for entertaining. And you will leave the class with a board for 4 people to enjoy.
