Baby Swiss is an American cheese closely related to traditional Swiss cheese , the generic name for the family of holey cheeses popular all around the world. What sets Baby Swiss apart from its close relative is its mild taste and smooth, creamy texture. It has smaller eyes the holes in Swiss cheese . Baby Swiss cheese originated in the mid 1960s outside of Charm, Ohio , and was invented by cheese connoisseur Alfred Guggisberg, an alumnus of the 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. Swiss cheeses are formed and flavored through the breaking down of lactic acid by bacteria , which generate carbon dioxide bubbles in the cheese as it ages. One of the key differences when it comes to making Baby Swiss, as opposed to traditional Swiss, is that it is aged only for a matter of weeks, whereas old fashioned Swiss is typically aged for months, time varying depending on the desired sharpness of the cheese. Baby Swiss is most commonly enjoyed in the United States, but can also be found in Europe and Australia . Most common uses include snacking, slicing for sandwiches, and melting for fondue . Locals of the area where Baby Swiss originated also commonly pair it with Trail Bologna , another local staple. References reflist External links Guggisberg Location Guggisberg Cheese.
