ELKMONT, AL, July 29, 2012 (Press-News.org) Tasia Malakasis, president at Belle Chevre and renowned lifestyle expert, has launched a new website at http://www.tasiastable.com. The launch of the new website coincides with the upcoming release of Tasia's first cookbook, Tasia's Table: Cooking with the Artisan Cheesemaker at Belle Chevre. It is to be released in September 2012 by New South publishers. Signed copies will be available for purchase exclusively on http://www.tasiastable.com.

The website, with its clean, bright look, will serve as a gathering place for Tasia's recipes, entertaining tips, and information about the author. Visitors will also be able to register for cooking classes and get details about book signings and events.

Malakasis, a former marketing exec, fell in love with Belle Chevre goat cheese and came back to Alabama to learn the art of cheesemaking and persuade the owner emeritus to let her be the next generation of Belle Chevre. Her products include fresh, flavored and marinated goat cheese, and are available at grocery stores everywhere and at http://www.bellechevre.com.

She and her products have been featured in innumerable national and regional media outlets, from Martha Stewart,, O! Magazine, Better Homes and Gardens, and Southern Living. She speaks publicly regularly, including stints at Harvard Business School, More Reveinvention Convention in NYC, Rotary Clubs as well as numerous public speaking and cooking/food-based events and demonstrations.

Belle Chèvre has produced a variety of internationally acclaimed chevres since 1989 using time-tested European farmstead techniques. The company is purposefully small, and each chevre is hand made by its passionate cheese makers. The result is an artisan cheese with a mild and distinct taste and texture that reflects the care with which it was made.

Belle Chèvre cheeses have received numerous national awards from the American Cheese Society and the American Dairy Goat Association, and has been featured in many top culinary books and magazines. Declared "American Treasure" by the internationally known authority on cheese, Steven Jenkins, and acclaimed by chefs and cheese lovers the world over, Belle Chèvre is available at upscale retailers including Dean and Deluca and the Cheese Store of Beverly Hills as well as larger outlets like Whole Foods Market.
