Le head always refers to small round pucks made from whole goat's milk, which were formerly called "Cream Cheese".

It takes its origins from the Occitan language and more precisely from “Cabre” which means “goat” to which is added the diminutive suffix “Cou”; it literally means little goat or little goat. 

Cabecou is eaten at room temperature with good country bread. It can also be eaten hot on toast or surrounded by pastry sheets.
