Montforte Gorgonzola is produced in Montfort, Wisconsin.  It is crafted in the Old World tradition of artisan cheese making using fresh cows’ milk not treated with rBGH collected at local farms by farmers who take great pride in their herds.  Montforte Gorgonzola has a robust flavor and is enhanced by its characteristic greenish marble veining with a soft, creamy texture.   Cello Thick & Smooth Mascarpone is produced at Lake Country Dairy in Turtle Lake, Wisconsin, the preeminent hard cheese producer in the United States.  Made from fresh, high quality milk and sweet cream, its rich sweet flavor delivers the expertise of mascarpone cheese making from Italy.
