Crave Brothers Farmstead Cheese offers abundant opportunities for creative cooking. Luxurious Crave Brothers Mascarpone is made from fresh sweet cream and contributes a velvety texture and rich flavor to recipes. The cheese has won more than 27 awards since its introduction, including a First Place Award in the 2017 Wisconsin State Fair Cheese and Butter Contest in the Soft Spreadable Cheese Category.
Crave Brothers award-winning Fresh Mozzarella lends itself to a variety of uses, from appetizers and side dishes to main courses. In 2017, Crave Brothers Farmstead Classics swept the Fresh Mozzarella category at the U.S. Cheese Championships, placing First, Second and Third. Other recent Fresh Mozzarella awards include First and Second Place Awards at the 2017 World Dairy Product Awards; First and Second Place Awards at the 2017 American Cheese Society Competition; and Second Place honors for both Fresh Mozzarella and Marinated Fresh Mozzarella at the 2017 Wisconsin State Fair Cheese and Butter Contest.
All of the artisanal Crave Brothers Farmstead Cheeses are made with milk from the Crave family’s own dairy herd, and are sustainably produced. The farmstead cheese-making facility uses 100 percent green power, and practices water conservation and recycling.

The Crave family farms 2,500 acres of productive land in south-central Wisconsin, growing soybeans, corn and alfalfa to use as nutritious feed for their Holstein cows. From the manure digester to water recovery and recycling, sustainability is top-of-mind on the farm. The Crave Brothers Farm LLC and Crave Brothers Farmstead Cheese LLC use 100% green power and are carbon-negative businesses. Their anaerobic biodigester produces more electricity than they need, enough to power the dairy farm, the farmstead cheese-making plant, and over 300 homes in their community.
Every pound of cheese made by George Crave, a licensed cheese maker, is made with milk from the family’s herd. Crave Brothers produces Fresh Mozzarella, Mascarpone, Part-skim Mozzarella, Oaxaca, Farmer’s Rope String Cheese, and Fresh Cheddar Cheese Curds in white, yellow and jalapeño varieties.
