The Spanish word,Tetilla, means literally little tits and is the name given to a cheese sold in the Galician region of northern Spain. Its flavour is creamy and slightly salty, its texture is fine and its colour yellowish ivory, although undoubtedly its greatest characteristic is the peculiar breast-like shape that gives it its name. It is a long established local speciality and its very distinctive shape was not in fact modelled on Madonnas conical bra.
