Cedar Crest Ice Cream, headquartered in Cedarburg, Wisconsin, and the Wisconsin 4-H Foundation have teamed up again to present the “Cedar Crest Ice Cream 4-H Flavor Creation Contest” for Wisconsin 4-H clubs.
All Wisconsin 4-H clubs are eligible to submit their idea for a new ice cream flavor, along with a flavor description and interesting flavor name. Enter the contest Sep. 1 through Nov. 15.
A panel of Cedar Crest Ice Cream flavor experts will select five finalists. One flavor will earn top honors, and get a $500 gift. The winning flavor will make its debut in parlors in the summer of 2025. All five finalists receive an ice cream party for their 4-H club.
“Cedar Crest Ice Cream is known for its variety of flavors,” says 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.”
4-H Youth Development
According to Brenda Scheider, Executive Director of the Wisconsin 4-H Foundation, 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,” she says.
The contest has been an annual tradition for over 10 years. One recent winning flavor of the annual contest includes Haystack, created by the Knellsville 4-H Club of Ozaukee County. Another winning flavor was Wisconsin Campfire S’mores, created by the Springbrook 4-H Club of New Richmond. The winning flavor this year was Paul Bunyan, created by the Pesobic Pathfinders 4-H Club of Lincoln County.
