For the second year in a row, Crave Brothers Farmstead Cheese secured the top honor at the Wisconsin State Fair Dairy Products Contest. Just like in 2022, the company’s Chocolate Mascarpone helped it land the title of Grand Master Cheesemaker.
The award goes to the maker of the overall top product in the contest, selected from the first-place winners in more than 40 categories. Overall, the contest at the Wisconsin State Fair features close to 500 entries.
Mascarpone received first place in the flavored soft cheese class at this year’s contest. It was one of two first-place awards for Crave Brothers, among its five latest accolades at the fair.
“To be named the Grand Master Cheesemaker for the second year in a row is an honor,” said George Crave, founder of Crave Brothers. “Our commitment to crafting sustainably made, high-quality products is unwavering, and we’re proud to be recognized as a top dairy producer in such a strong industry.”

• Sour cream – Odyssey Sour Cream, by Klondike Cheese Co. (Monroe, Wis.)
