For the Tomahawk Leader
WISCONSIN – The Wisconsin 4H Foundation and Cedar Crest Ice Cream have once again teamed up for their annual ice cream flavor contest.
All Wisconsin 4H clubs are invited to take part in the Cedar Crest Ice Cream 4-H Flavor Creation Contest. Clubs are eligible to submit their idea for a new ice cream flavor, along with a flavor description and interesting flavor name, between Sunday, Sept. 1 and Friday, Nov. 15.
A release from the 4H Foundation said five finalists will be selected by a panel of Cedar Crest Ice Cream flavor experts from all entries received. One flavor is awarded top honors and a $500.00 gift. The winning flavor will make its debut in parlors in the summer of 2025. All five finalists will receive an ice cream party for their 4-H club.
Last year, Lincoln County’s Pesobic Pathfinders took the top spot with their flavor, “Paul Bunyan.”
“Cedar Crest Ice Cream is known for its variety of flavors,” said Robert Kohlwey, Vice President of Sales for Cedar Crest Ice Cream. “It is a real joy to see the imaginative flavor ideas submitted by our creative 4-Hers across the state.”
Brenda Scheider, Executive Director of the Wisconsin 4-H Foundation, said the contest is a great opportunity for 4-H youth to work together to develop and name their flavor.
“The most exciting part of the contest is the winning flavor will be available in parlors that scoop Cedar Crest Ice Cream next July,” Scheider stated.
