Baker Cheese News

Baker Cheese is a staple in the Wisconsin cheese industry, known for creating mozzarella string cheese following a tradition of exceptional quality over the last 100 years.

Baker Cheese is proud announce that it was awarded the silver medal for flavored string cheese at the 2017 U.S. Championship Cheese Contest held in Green Bay in early March.

Baker Cheese submitted its jalapeno mozzarella all-natural string cheese in the category.

As one of the nation’s largest string cheese manufacturers, we are accustomed to answering a lot of questions about cheese. We were recently asked by a leading international news media outlet to answer this simple question:

At the recent World Dairy Expo Dairy Product Championship Contest, Baker Cheese was proud to accept the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place awards in the String Cheese Division.
