Milton Creamery’s Garden Vegetable Cheddar was created to capture the comforting flavors of a Midwest garden in peak season—when onions are sweet, peppers are vibrant, and everything feels fresh and full of possibility. Built on our signature smooth cheddar base, this cheese brings together real vegetables and herbs to create a balanced, savory cheddar that feels both familiar and thoughtfully crafted.

What makes Garden Vegetable Cheddar unique is its harmony. Rather than overpowering the cheese, the vegetables are carefully blended into the curd so each bite delivers a gentle layering of flavor. The cheddar itself is creamy and mellow, providing the perfect backdrop for the natural sweetness of onions, the mild warmth of peppers, and the herbaceous lift of garden herbs. The result is a cheese that’s approachable, versatile, and deeply satisfying.

Aromatically, Garden Vegetable Cheddar offers a warm, savory scent—soft dairy notes with hints of onion and herbs that immediately suggest comfort food and home cooking. On the palate, it starts smooth and creamy, followed by subtle vegetable notes that unfold gradually. The finish is clean, savory, and slightly tangy, making it easy to enjoy slice after slice.

This cheese shines because of its versatility. It melts beautifully, making it ideal for grilled cheese, omelets, casseroles, and mac and cheese, while still holding its own on a snack board or sliced for sandwiches. It’s a cheese that fits effortlessly into everyday meals but still feels special.
