What can I substitute for gruyere cheese in baking a cheese custard tartlet?

If that is the case, then Baby Swiss cheese is the closest thing to Gruyere that is inexpensive, commercially available and pretty tasty.

M$Vacherin sounds like a comparable cheese. I would also guess Baby Gouda would work but I've not worked with it alot.

M$It's a swiss/french cheese(must be from the Alps) and is a melting cheese that people eat melted with bread or crackers, it also goes very well on scallops and many other foods. It has a relatively strong flavor and costs about the same as Gruyere, although the texture is different. The raclette will be softer, by a little bit.

Good point. I probably should have thought of that, and baby swiss is definitely a good answer to that one. I would definitely recommend trying Raclette if you get a chance though. It is a delicious cheese that most people will never try.
Thank you for the information. I was, however, hoping for a common and more easily accessible substitute.
Fontina might also be good, which is an Italian cheese and a good melter. The younger, not the aged version. It's a lot milder than Swiss or raclette.
If you don't mind being somewhat blasphemous, you could use a sharp cheddar. Again, depends on if the cheese is essential to the texture of the dish or is mostly there for flavor.

Thank you for your reply. I'm sorry to say that I'm new at this and did in fact press "Select as Best Answer" in error. I do value your response, though, and want you to know that blasphemy is exactly what I had in mind. Unfortunately, I don't have the time or monitary resources to make a special shopping trip for every recipe I want to try.
Thanks, no problem. I hope your tartlet comes out well!
