About Ilchester

Ilchester is a renowned British speciality cheese brand based in Somerset, the heart of English cheesemaking country. Founded in 1962, the company has become synonymous with flavoured British cheeses, most famously Applewood smoked cheddar and Mexicana spiced cheese. Applewood is Ilchester's flagship cheese - a creamy cheddar with distinctive smoke flavour and a paprika-dusted rind that gives it an appealing amber colour. The smoky taste comes from natural smoke flavouring rather than actual smoking, allowing for consistent flavour in every slice. Applewood has become a cheeseboard staple and is perfect for sandwiches, burgers, and anywhere smoked cheese adds depth. Mexicana delivers fiery flavour with jalapeño peppers, bell peppers, and spices blended into cheddar cheese. It's become popular for Mexican-inspired dishes, nachos, and adding heat to everyday cooking. The balance of creamy cheese with genuine chilli kick has made it a customer favourite. Beyond these stars, Ilchester produces cheese selection boxes perfect for entertaining. The Variety Mini Cheese Selection and Family Favourites boxes offer assortments of flavoured cheeses, ideal for cheeseboards, picnics, and gifting. These include various speciality cheeses from the Ilchester range in convenient portion sizes. The brand also offers convenient formats like sliced cheese and cheese bites (snack-sized portions), making Applewood and other speciality cheeses accessible for lunchboxes and quick meals. Now part of the Saputo dairy group, Ilchester maintains its Somerset heritage while enjoying wider distribution. Available at UK supermarkets including Ocado, Ilchester brings accessible speciality cheese to everyday shopping.

FAQs

Grocefully is a smart grocery shopping app that automatically compares prices across all major UK supermarkets (Tesco, ASDA, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, etc.) and helps you buy from the cheapest stores. We handle the complexity of split orders so you save money without any extra effort.

Our users save an average of 25-30% on their total grocery bill. For a typical £100 weekly shop, that's £20-25 in savings even after our 5% service fee. The exact amount depends on your shopping habits and the products you buy.

We currently support Tesco, ASDA, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, Waitrose, and Iceland. We're constantly adding new stores and will notify you when more become available.

Grocefully is available wherever the supported supermarkets deliver. Simply enter your postcode when you sign up to check availability in your area.

Our AI scans real-time prices from all supported supermarkets every time you shop. It finds exact matches or suitable alternatives for each item on your list, then automatically selects the cheapest option while considering delivery fees and minimum order requirements.

You can set brand preferences for any item. If you prefer specific brands, Grocefully will only compare prices for those brands. You can also allow substitutions for some items while keeping others fixed.

Our users save an average of 25-30% per shop. Even after the 5% service fee, you're still saving 20-25% on average. For a £100 shop, you'd save £25-30 and pay £5 in fees, netting you £20-25 in savings!

The service fee is automatically calculated and shown before you complete your order. It's added to your total, so you only make one payment. No hidden charges or surprises.

Refunds are processed according to each supermarket's policy. If you're not satisfied with your savings, contact our support team - we offer a money-back guarantee on our service fee.
