Courtesy of Wisconsin CheeseInstead of giving your loved one flowers or candy this Valentine’s Day, consider surprising them with a gift that provides a taste of Wisconsin - a heart-shaped box of cheese.
Now through Saturday, Jan. 31, you can nominate the cheese lover in your life, or if that’s you as a lovely gift to yourself, to receive one of 500 limited-edition gift boxes from Wisconsin, The State of Cheese.
Touted by this cheese-promoting program of the Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin, this giveaway will send out limited-edition boxes with a selection of five specialty Wisconsin cheeses.
“From now until Valentine’s Day, we’re taking the pressure for receiving a rose off the table and celebrating our love for all things cheese,” says Suzanne Fanning, chief marketing officer for Wisconsin Cheese and senior vice president for Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin, in a media statement announcing the giveaway. “In Wisconsin, cheese is our love language, and we know many of our fans across the country feel the same way, so this is a ‘grate’ way to celebrate with cheese lovers nationwide.”
Five distinct cheeses from cheesemakers across Wisconsin will be included in this special giveaway
Courtesy of Wisconsin CheeseCrafted by the state’s cheesemakers, the Wisconsin specialty cheeses in this gift box will represent a lovely mix of categories. Their descriptions and makers include:
- Crave Brothers Chocolate Mascarpone – Sweet cream kissed with chocolate, this velvety ambrosia adds a touch of luxury to desserts and can be enjoyed as a dip for fresh strawberries as your meal’s pièce de résistance. This mascarpone comes from Crave Brothers Farmstead Cheese LLC, a three-generation run farm in Waterloo, Wisc.
- Cedar Grove Butterkäse – Short for “buttery cheese” because of its soft and silky texture, this decadently creamy cheese will make anyone who tastes it instantly swoon. It’s made by Cedar Grove Cheese, which is located just outside of Plain, Wisc. and is known for being the first in the country to assure its products were rBGH-free in December 1993.
- Wood River Creamery Black Truffle Cheddar Gruyere – The aromatic truffle married to this aged cheddar and gruyere blend creates a complex and sophisticated flavor that your date will surely want to linger over. This gruyere comes from the Burnett Dairy Cooperative, based near Grantsburg, and is a fusion of these two types of cheeses.
- Roth Buttermilk Blue – Stop the world and melt your loved one’s heart with this award-winning luscious and creamy blue cheese. Simply drizzle with honey to soften any mood. Based in Monroe, Wisc., Roth Cheese produces Swiss-inspired alpine-style cheeses, Dutch-style Gouda, Havarti and some of their own American Originals.
- Henning’s Maple Bourbon Cheddar – Perfect for anyone with sophisticated taste, this full-bodied white cheddar charms with mouthwatering hints of maple, caramel and molasses, and surprises as a delightful pair with chocolate truffles. It’s from Henning’s Wisconsin Cheese, a fourth-generation, family-owned cheese factory in rural Kiel, Wis. that features an on-site cheese store and museum.
