Ellsworth Creamery Brings Fresh Cheese Curds to Minnesota State Fair
For the first time in its history, Ellsworth Cooperative Creamery will sell its signature fresh cheese curds directly to fairgoers at the Minnesota State Fair. The Wisconsin-based producer, which has long supplied concessionaires with frying curds, will debut exclusive two-ounce pouches at its booth on Underwood Street.
Kevin Pieh, CEO of the cooperative, noted that the move capitalizes on the company’s status as the top-selling refrigerated retail cheese curd brand in the United States. While Ellsworth has served as a behind-the-scenes supplier for deep-fried curds at the fair for years, this sponsorship of the Food Building marks their first direct-to-consumer retail presence on the fairgrounds. The village of Ellsworth, Wisconsin, remains the hub of this production, officially recognized as the "Cheese Curd Capital" for its specialized manufacturing process.
