Tillamook Offers New ‘Creamery Collection’ Pre-Sliced Premium Cheeses

TILLAMOOK, Ore. — Tillamook is bringing gourmet flavor to the deli department with its new Creamery Collection, six flavorful varieties of pre-sliced cheeses, as well as the new Tillamook 4-lb. Baby Swiss loaf.

Conveniently sliced for sandwiches and snack platters, Tillamook’s Creamery Collection is exclusive to the grocery service deli and is available in six delicious varieties, including Hot Habanero Jack, Garlic Chili Pepper Cheddar, Garlic White Cheddar, Smoked Black Pepper White Cheddar, Smoked Swiss and Tillamook’s Medium Cheddar, voted World’s Best at the 2010 World Championship Cheese Contest. Available in 7-oz. shingle packs, the Creamery Collection features an all new premium packaging design that resembles classic deli parchment wrapping.

Expanding the extensive deli case cheese line to an even dozen, Tillamook also introduces the 4-lb. Baby Swiss loaf – perfect for slicing for sandwiches, cubing for party trays, and melting for fondue. While Tillamook’s traditional Swiss cheese is aged more than 60 days, the new Baby Swiss Loaf is aged 30 days for a slightly sweeter flavor with nut and butter overtones and a creamy texture.

“With more families cooking at home, but looking for restaurant quality flavor, the new Creamery Collection helps meet the demand for premium taste that’s both convenient and affordable,” said Jay Allison, Tillamook vice president of sales and marketing. “With gourmet sandwiches a top trend for 2011, Tillamook fans can now add layers of flavor to any panini or hoagie with our new deli case cheeses.”

Like all Tillamook cheese, the new Creamery Collection and Baby Swiss loaf are made using only the highest quality milk from cows not treated with artificial growth hormones and contain nothing artificial.
