The Wild Flower is a semi-hard, cow's milk cheese with an edible organic rind that has been covered in a bouquet of fresh herbs and flowers sourced locally from the Alps. Made with homemade cheese cultures and pure, pasteurized local 'hay milk' from the prized Allgäuer Braunvieh cow breed, the Wild Flower is slowly ripened for 6-8 weeks to develop it's unique flavor. Master cheesemakers at Baldauf cover the rind entirely with a floral bouquet that imparts the flavor of the milk with earthy, grassy undertones resulting in a cheese that is a true expression of the land and Allgau region. The welcoming floral aroma, delicate texture and unique flavor from the hay milk makes the Wild Flower a truly one-of-a-kind cheese.
The beauty of Baldauf cheeses is in the 'hay milk' that is collected from the century old, robust cow breed called the 'Allgäuer Braunvieh'. This particular breed feeds exclusively on hay in the winter months and grazes on grasses during the summer, producing a higher quality 'hay milk' that makes up only 5% of all milk production in Germany. Baldauf is only one of a few producers in Germany using this high quality hay milk in their complete line of cheeses, and this milk is delivered fresh every morning from small local farms in the Allgau region.
Baldauf is situated in the beautiful and serene Allgau region of Germany and was founded in 1862 by businessman Martin Baldauf, who was one of the first to distribute Emmental cheese. With a deep respect for the home region of Allgau, Balduaf continues to support and maintain a close relationship with the local farmers and alpine dairies. The master cheesemakers at Baldauf continue to carry the legacy of cheesemaking in the region, honoring tradition and the love for producing a pure, quality cheese. Relying on handicraft, tradition and true artisan technique, Baldauf cheeses stand the test of time.

What’s the best way to store my cheese? The best way to keep cheese fresh is to store it in the vegetable crisper in your fridge. Before doing so, wrap in parchment or wax paper, then wrap loosely in plastic wrap. You can also buy our exclusive cheese storage bags, specially created to keep your cheese fresher, longer.
Unless used for cooking, we don’t recommend storing cheese in the freezer as this will alter its texture. What is the best temperature to serve my cheese? Remove cheese from the fridge an hour before serving, as cheese is best experienced at room temperature to enjoy the full spectrum of flavors.
How long will my cheese stay fresh in the refrigerator? The length of time cheeses last in the fridge after opening depends largely on the type of cheese. Soft varieties tend to spoil more quickly than hard varieties. Please refer to the table below for a convenient reference:
