Time Out says

A vegan cheese shop that's so good you won't even miss the dairy

If you're kicking dairy to the curb for health reasons, environmental reasons, or are just looking into the flexitarian lifestyle and can't quit that good, good cheesy stuff – La Petite Fauxmagerie has got you sorted.

Not only is the pun-tastic name an absolute ace, the Newtown "cheese" shop has a very serious selection of plant-based produce, from cashew blues, to truffled brie, and even their own range of non-dairy butter, so your next wine and nibbles night can still get loosey-goosey without the cheese-dreams after.

The team at La Petite Fauxmagerie are so dedicated to their cause that they've even come out with their own ranges of vegan-friendly produce; pretty and floral organic cashew nut cheeses that are as delightful to look at as they are to eat, and a range of cultured vegan butter that's healthy and totally delicious.

While the more cynical among us may protest that there's no substitute for the real-deal, these nut-based cheeses are every bit as satisfying as their milky counterparts, and are much gentler on the stomachs of the lactose-intolerant out there, who are notorious for their fast and loose approach to the dairy world.

Want to stock up on more goodies for your vegan spread? Next door is Le Gourmand, a vegan French bakery where you can stock up on French breads, savoury spreads, deceptively buttery-tasting croissants and delicate little macarons.

Don't believe us? Why not compare with the best cheese shops in Sydney?
