Heritage

Liederkranz originated in upstate New York in the late 1800s as a replica of a traditional soft, smelly cheese from Germany that immigrants missed, and could no longer get because it would spoil during shipping. The cheese recipe left New York for Ohio in 1926 before finally finding a new home in Wisconsin, which has an enthusiastic German fan base.

Description

Slightly less pungent than Limburger, but similar. Surface ripened, made in small rectangles. Robust and buttery with pale yellow crust becoming golden brown with age. Spreadable.

Appearance

Moist, edible, golden yellow crust cradles a pale ivory interior with a honey-like consistency.

Texture

Soft and creamy

Flavor

Robust and buttery flavor; milder than Limburger.

Goes Well With

Pairs particularly well with dark bread and dark beer and is enjoyed as an appetizer, on salads or sandwiches, or with fruits.

Liederkranz Cheese May 13, 2013
Reviewer: Betty Alcaraz from Golden Valley AZ.  
The wonderful flavor and texture of Liederkranz has taken me back many years.  I have not been able to find Liederkranz for many years.  I love this soft, smooth spreadable cheese with it's strong flavor.  Thank you for producing Liederkranz and I hope that you will continue to produce it.

Reviewer: Martine from Bethel, Vermont  
I've been searching for Liederkranz for several years and finally found it on your Website.  It is as wonderful as I remember it: creamy and tasty.  And, your shipping service is excellent.  I am pleased to recommend your product.

Great cheese, great shopping experience January 6, 2013
Reviewer: Anonymous Person  
The Liederkranz was a great purchase. It tasted great (just exhale whenever it's close to you face) and it made for a fun gift-giving experience. Hats off to Hefti Creek for getting it to me in time for Christmas, even though I ordered it kinda late. Thank you, I will shop here again!
