Te Rapa creams the opposition
Cream cheese from Fonterra’s Te Rapa site won a silver medal at the World Championship Cheese Contest in Wisconsin; its 97.55 out of 100 score less than half a point behind the winner. Known as the Cheese Olympics, the WCCC is the largest event of its kind, boasting 1,792 entries from 18 countries this year alone. Te Rapa cream products process manager Dave Waterman was particularly pleased to win such an award in the US, the undisputed home of cream cheese.
