Boldly Wisconsin

No Menu is Complete
Without It

If you’re not using Merkts Cheese in your culinary creations, your patrons are truly missing out on deliciously bold and flavorful cheese. Merkts Cheese is made from 100% real Wisconsin cheddar that’s aged at least nine months. It’s bold and hearty, but still creamy and perfect for spreads, dips, soups, and just about anything else you can think of. It melts beautifully, yielding a smooth, rich consistency perfect for so many of today’s trend-forward dishes.

Leverage Three Big Flavor Trends

Tap into what’s current in the kitchen and popular on the menu:

  • Pub Grub

    Whether watching the big game or just hanging out with the guys, Merkts is all about shareable, fun food that carries a depth of flavor.

  • Bolder Burgers

    Standard burgers are no longer good enough. Today’s burgers need to offer big flavor and textural play. No one wants a naked burger—they want Merkts bold, 100% Wisconsin cheese between their buns.

  • Loaded Fries

    Indulgent and shareable are just two of the reasons loaded fries are trending in kitchens everywhere. Merkts Cheese adds a layer of bold, Wisconsin goodness that is flavor-forward and delicious.

With a good, cheddar flavor, Merkts offers a broad range of smart menu strategies.

  • Top Off baked potatoes and chicken

  • Smear On veggies, sandwiches, and flatbreads

  • Stuff Inside burgers, tomatoes, and pastas

  • Stir In soups and dips
