The WMMB Chef Ambassador Program

Top chefs from all across the country have discovered the heritage and passion of Wisconsin Cheese and its creators by participating in "Cheese with Pride, Chefs with Passion," the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board's Chef Ambassador program.

This program connects some of the best chefs in the nation with Wisconsin Cheese – some of the best cheese in the nation. The WMMB Chef Ambassador program taps the culinary creativity of these talented chefs to develop exciting new menu applications. In addition to developing recipes, chef ambassadors also spend the year spreading the word about Wisconsin Cheese through a special chef-invitee event in their restaurants, making media appearances and appearing at food events and conferences.
