The step of turning the blocks of tomme is far from being the last stage in the manufacture of Cantal DPO. The mass pressed in a press-tomme and turned over several times would then be crushed into pieces and salted. It is later placed in a mold in successive layers, wrapped in a canvas previously seeded with surface flora which would later form the rind. In the cellar, the fourme would still be turned over and rubbed regularly to allow a harmonious development of the rind.
