What sort of cheese are you using?
You can use gouda or edam cheese for your cocktail sticks with onion or pineapple. Don't use cheddar as it crumbles when you stick the cocktail sticks. |

Thats easy - I use cheddar - clean hands and hold the four sides of the cube firmly as you thread - wont split!

Edam as has been suggested is best as it's much less likely to crumble. Cheddar tasty as it is does have a tendancy to crumble IME

Try bringing the cheese to room temperature first.
