Websterville, VT – Vermont Butter & Cheese Creamery’s fat-free Fromage Blanc is a French-style fresh cheese that is the French answer to American yogurt. It is thick and tangy and a versatile addition to anyone’s healthy eating resolutions. Fromage Blanc, also known as Fromage Frais belongs to a family of European-style cows’ milk cheeses made with different textures and butterfat amounts to perform different roles in the kitchen. At Vermont Butter & Cheese Creamery, these distinctive fresh cheeses share a link with company co-founder Allison Hooper’s apprenticeship on a dairy farm in Brittany, France. The fromage blanc Allison remembered enjoying on the farm for dessert — mixed with a bit of sugar — inspired Vermont Fromage Blanc, which she and company co-founder Bob Reese introduced to the U.S. market in 1985.
