In 1990, BelGioioso became the first American company to produce this fresh Italian specialty cheese in the United States. We are now the largest U.S. producer of authentic Italian Mascarpone, covering 70% of the market and offering three types of Mascarpone for various applications. Our Classic version is a naturally sweet, yet surprisingly light cheese (1/2 the calories of butter.) Produced from only the freshest cream, its soft, creamy texture spreads with ease and blends well with other ingredients.
