…. makes kids happy – and adults too.
The delicious cream cheese made from high-quality hay milk delights not only children but also the palates of adults. Its tenderly melting consistency and smooth texture with cherry-sized holes make it a treat for all ages.
What stands out about this cheese is the quality derived from hay milk, from cows traditionally fed on fresh grass and hay, giving the cheese a distinctively mild and natural flavor.
This feeding method contributes not only to the outstanding quality of the cheese but also to sustainable and eco-friendly production.
Lactose-Free Aged Cheese: The natural milk sugar in our hay milk cheese has been broken down by lactic acid bacteria. Result: lactic acid plus rich taste and aroma development.
Another advantage of this cream cheese is that it is lactose-free. This means that people with lactose intolerance can enjoy the mild flavor and creamy consistency of this cheese without worries.
Thanks to the use of hay milk and careful processing, this product is cherished not only locally but also among guests seeking the authentic taste of the Alpine region.
This cream cheese combines traditional taste with modern quality, offering a taste experience that delights young and old alike. A cheese that not only brings joy but also represents a piece of authentic craftsmanship.
- The cream cheese has a fine, buttery note on the palate and a cheese body known for its creamy, rich texture.
- It melts and flows gently, with a slight buttermilk touch.
Our cream cheese is part of our family of mild cheeses in our shop overview.
Characteristics of Cream Cheese
Cream cheese has been produced in the Bregenzerwald for many years and has become a favorite cheese for many enthusiasts.
Its soft, melting, and aromatic texture has gained a large following.
The distinctive qualities of cream cheese are shaped by the high-quality Alpine milk, its nutrients, taste, consistency, and the flora of the Vorarlberg Alps.
This results in the exceptional quality of Alpine cheese.
Historical Background of Vorarlberg Cheese
Cheese has been produced and aged in Vorarlberg on Alpine and valley dairies since the early 20th century.
The production method of “full-fat cheese” (as opposed to low-fat cheese like Sura Käs in Montafon) originated in Switzerland and quickly spread throughout Bregenzerwald.
These cheeses are made from natural (non-thermized, unpasteurized, or non-centrifugally purified) raw milk (hay milk) with a minimum of 45% F.i.T.
The artisanal production and traditional care of this quality cheese have been maintained by the small, family-run farms that supply the raw materials and the Alpine dairies’ tradition.

Cheese Holes in Cream Cheese
The cream cheese has occasional cherry-sized holes.
The Rind of Cream Cheese
The cream cheese has a yellowish rind.
Storage and Aging of Cream Cheese
The cream cheese is aged for approximately 3 months in the cheese cellar before it is ready to enjoy.
Special Quality Features of Our Cheese and Yes, the Flavorful Rind Is Safe to Eat
- The rind of cheese forms when the cheese wheels are submerged in a salt bath after shaping.
- The salt bath aids rind formation and acts against bacteria. Depending on the type of cheese, the wheels remain in such a bath for varying durations.
- The salt draws water from the cheese wheel. Afterwards, the wheels are regularly brushed with iodine-free salt & salt brine until fully matured.

Storing Cream Cheese
If you wish to store large pieces or an entire cheese wheel for more than 2-3 weeks, we recommend using a kitchen towel.
Take a clean kitchen towel, soak it in salt water (just add a little salt), wring it out, and wrap the cheese with the damp towel. Repeat this process ideally every 2-3 days.
If the cheese develops a slight white color or spots, it’s usually the salt or protein that crystallizes due to temperature differences. These spots can simply be wiped off.
Using aluminum foil is possible (although not recommended) if you punch several small holes to allow air flow.
Avoid Bread Contact - Yeast Spores
Do not store or slice cheese on boards, woods, or surfaces previously used for bread. Bread yeast spores can make the cheese mold quickly.
