Wash and prepare all the vegetables. Slice the asparagus, baby cucumbers, mixed radishes, orange pepper, and carrots thinly. Leave some of the cherry tomatoes whole. Arrange them beautifully on a large serving board or platter, leaving space in the center for the dip.

In a small bowl, combine the grated Cheshire Cheese Company Masala, cream cheese, and crème fraîche. Stir continuously until the cheeses are well combined, creating a smooth and creamy dip. Add mango chutney and nigella or onion seeds to garnish.

Once the dip is ready, transfer it to a serving bowl and place it in the center of the crudités board. Arrange the prepared vegetables around the dip, creating an attractive display of colours and textures.

Sprinkle the edible flowers and fresh herbs over the vegetables and cheese dip to add a pop of colour and freshness.
