Websterville – Vermont Creamery was once again honored with three SOFI™ Awards—the Specialty Food Industry’s most prestigious distinction, at the award ceremony held April 11 in New York City.
Vermont Creamery’s new Clover Blossom Honey Fresh Goat Cheese was the New Product winner for the Cheese-Non-Cow Milk, Mixed-Milk category. Cremont won Gold in the Cheese-Non-Cow Milk, Mixed-Milk category and Crème Frâiche was the silver winner in the Dairy, Yogurt, Dairy Alternative category.
“We are elated to be recognized by the Specialty Food Association with three Sofi statues,” said Adeline Druart, president of Vermont Creamery.” “These accolades demonstrate our passion for new product innovation, the immense talent and rigor of our cheesemakers and our dedication to quality across our product categories.”
Considered the “Academy Awards of the Specialty Food Industry,” Sofis are awarded annually by the Specialty Food Association and celebrated at the Summer Fancy Food Show in New York City.
This year, winners were chosen from over 2,600 entries that were assessed by an expert panel of judges in a series of blind tastings. Each entry was evaluated on excellence of taste and ingredients, and scored accordingly at gold, silver, and bronze levels. New products within each category had an additional assessment for innovation.
