In 1918 Hubert Fassbender formed his own distributing company in Kaukauna, Wisconsin, which soon became known as South Kaukauna Dairy and eventually Kaukauna Cheese. After years of experimenting, he perfected a cold pack method of cheese production. This consists of grinding natural cheese to a fine texture and, without heat, combining it with whey solids, dry milk, and flavors such as wine and spices. The flavors come through, and the product remains spreadable at room temperature.
Over the years, the fine quality of Kaukauna spreadable cheeses has been recognized with dozens of gold medals and blue ribbons. In 2003 alone, for example, Kaukauna won 1st place for its sharp cheddar cold pack in a U.S. Cheese contest sponsored by the Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association, as well as the Governor's Sweepstakes Award at the 2003 Wisconsin State Fair.
