Olomoucké tvarůžky ([ˈolomoutskɛː ˈtvaruːʃkɪ]), also known as olomoucké syrečky (Czech pronunciation: [ˈolomoutskɛː ˈsɪrɛtʃkɪ]) or tvargle (from its German name Olmützer Quargel), English: Olomouc cheese, Olomouc curd cheese) is a ripened soft cheese made in Loštice, Olomouc Region, Czech Republic.
The cheese is very easy to recognize by its strong scent, distinctive pungent taste and yellowish colour.
Tvarůžky is made from skimmed cow's milk without adding rennet, colourings, flavourings and stabilizers, and contains only 0.5% of fat.
[4] Until the 19th century, Olomoucké tvarůžky was produced in the villages surrounding Olomouc, and was generally regarded as a peasant food.
[7] In 2016, a shop in Loštice began producing a variety of ice cream based on the cheese.
