Mini Babybel Original is the classic 22 g Babybel in red wax made from French milk, sold in nets of 6 to 22 cheeses.

Mini Babybel Original is the classic range of the Babybel brand of the Bel group: a small round cheese weighing 22 g in a red wax coat. It appeared in 1976 as the little brother of the first Babybel.

According to the brand, French Mini Babybel is made in the Pays de la Loire region from French milk; the recipe is 98% milk. 100 g contain about 295 kcal, 23 g of fat, 22 g of protein and 680 mg of calcium, so one cheese (22 g) provides about 65 kcal and 150 mg of calcium. The wax protects the cheese, which can stay up to 8 hours out of the fridge.

Mini Babybel Original is sold in nets of 6, 8, 10, 14, 16, 20 and 22 cheeses. By type it is a mild semi-hard cheese; its red wax and round shape were inspired by Edam. Alongside it the brand sells Mini Rolls and a flavour assortment.

The cheese is taken as a snack to school or on the go. The brand advises parents of children under 4 to cut it into small pieces to avoid the risk of choking and to give it under adult supervision.
