New from America’s Dairyland: bubblegum-flavored cheese for the bubblegum set
Reportedly, the potential is huge. Flavored cheeses are "extremely popular" in other parts of the world.
Cheese purists might blanch at the thought of cotton candy-flavored cheese, but children love it, says the Center for Dairy Research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Research scientists at the Center have also cooked up green apple, banana, berry, bubblegum and chocolate flavors. If you don’t see your favorite flavor on the menu, just ask. The Center is more than happy to make it for you.
At last week’s International Cheese Technology Expo in Milwaukee, the Center served samples of the flavored processed cheeses in the hope that a dairy processor will license the technology. A fact sheet notes that “the potential for U.S. growth in this area is huge as these products have proven to be extremely popular in other parts of the world.”
