Ella Kinloch from Calgary, Canada, was once a school teacher, but left her full time work to devote her time to a true passion – making cheese. She had a 4-month cheese making internship followed by meetings with many cheese makers in North America. Probably that's when she came up with a very interesting small business idea – providing people with a specially designed kits to make cheese at home. Currently Make Cheese Inc. sells two different cheese making kits: Lotsa Motza for making mozzarella (there's everything needed to make 300 grams of cheese for about 30 times), and Proud Poutine which is a traditional Canadian dish of cheese curd served on fries with gravy. Besides, Ella Kinloch also runs cheese making classes where anyone can learn to make mozzarella for a decent sum of CND 20. Company plans to develop further and to bring new kits for other cheese types. Diy food is among small business trends 2012 and diy food kits are very popular gifts both in Europe, US and Australia.
