Madison, WI (March 17, 2025) -- The Big Moo is proud to announce that its Harvest Cranberry Baked Cheese has been named a finalist in the "Best Artisan Product" category at the 2025 World Food Innovation Awards. This prestigious event, organized by FoodBev Media, celebrates excellence and innovation across every sector of the global food industry.
This year's awards have been the largest yet, with over 100 shortlisted companies entering from across the globe, spanning 24 categories. The winners were announced today, highlighting the most innovative products, brands, and processes in the food and beverage industry worldwide.
The Big Moo - Harvest Cranberry Baked Cheese combines the authentic Finnish heritage of juustoleipä with the iconic flavors of Wisconsin. This seasonal cheese features the sweetness of cranberries and the warm essence of cinnamon, enhanced by a caramelized crust that delivers a satisfying contrast between its crispy exterior and melty interior.
The inclusion of cranberries—a fruit synonymous with Wisconsin as the nation’s largest producer—adds a regional flair and seasonal charm to this traditional style of cheese. Harvest Cranberry is produced in small batches by Wisconsin Cheesemakers using fresh Wisconsin Creamline milk. The milk is sourced from local family-owned, rBST-free dairy farms and reflects a commitment to tradition, ethical sourcing, and sustainability.
This recognition at the World Food Innovation Awards underscores our dedication to quality and innovation in the dairy industry.
The Big Moo Harvest Cranberry is available in select retail locations and online at thebigmoocheese.com.
