Description

Baby Swiss is another of our local selections, made in Charm, Ohio by the original producer Guggisberg Cheese.  Some of Our other Signature local cheeses include Swiss, Sharp Swiss, Amish Butter Cheese, Yogurt Cheese, and several variations of each.Lacey Baby Swiss is a young, semi-soft cheese distinguishable by its myriad of small holes. Baby Swiss is closely related to Swiss cheese, made by substituting water for the milk’s whey to slow bacterial action, Lacey Baby Swiss has smaller holes and a milder flavor.  Lacey Baby Swiss has a delightfully creamy and mild taste, but a lower calorie and sodium content than the original.
Smoked Baby Swiss is also available, along with Baby Swiss for those who prefer the original version.

History of Lacey Baby Swiss

Baby Swiss originated in 1967 just outside of Charm, Ohio, and was invented by cheese connoisseur Alfred Guggisberg, an alumnus of the famous Swiss Federal “Molkereishulle” (cheese maker’s institute). The name Baby Swiss was coined by Alfred’s wife, Margaret Guggisberg, who thought that in comparison to the larger wheels of traditional Swiss cheese, when placed side by side, the new cheese looked like a baby. While Lacy Baby Swiss is produced in the same area and was inspired by the original Baby Swiss, it is not produced by Guggisberg Cheese.  Guggisberg’s lower fat and sodium cheese is Lucerne Cheese.
