Falling for Cheese

Goodbye, summer. Hello, fall feels. In Wisconsin, this means warm days and cool nights, tasty meals featuring sensational specialty cheeses and produce at its peak, along with celebrating traditions like apple picking and Oktoberfest with German-inspired cheeses!

Smoky Sophistication

Gather the juiciest stone fruits, apples from the orchard and that bumper crop of tomatoes—your harvest haul is destined for “grateness” when combined with the toasty, meaty notes in smoked cheeses. Wisconsin cheesemakers like Carr Valley Cheese, Red Apple Cheese™ and Castello® naturally cold smoke their cheeses using wood chips. Savor the flavor of cheddar lightly smoked with applewood in this Apple-Cheddar Pork Chops recipe.

Prost! It's Time for Wisconsin's Oktoberfest!

Raise a stein with German-inspired gems handcrafted in the state of cheese. Wisconsin is the only place in the U.S. making authentic, washed-rind brick cheese and lovingly pungent limburger. Try them in delicious Deutschland takes like Bavarian Beer Cheese Dip and Flammkuchens. Or sample mild, delicate butterkäse; it's a buttery beauty ideal for snacking and cooking.

One of just a few soft-ripened Wisconsin wheels, our triple cream brie has an edible bloomy rind and a lush, spreadable interior marked with a lovely line of vegetable ash. Schroeder Käse crafts this jewel with extra heavy cream for a velvety texture and buttery flavor—this bloomy bebé is a treat! It's posh enough to pair with Champagne yet playful for a casual harvest picnic. Enjoy its earthy mushroom notes and lusciously creamy texture with raspberry jam, toasted nuts, cured ham and flaky croissants.

Caramel Triple Creme Brie

“This was easy to make and had the most wonderful flavor,” reviews Meglady21. "Adding cardamom to the caramel took it to another level. The apples and gingersnaps were a perfect pairing (with the cheese).”
