Cheese Curds

Culver’s Launches New Jalapeño Cheese Curds

October 15, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Culver’s new Jalapeño Cheese Curds will make their debut on the 10th  anniversary of National Cheese Curd Day (Oct. 15) and will be available in local restaurants until Oct. 31 or while supplies last. This bold twist on Culver’s classic Wisconsin Cheese Curds is made with bits of jalapeño and real cheddar cheese and fried to gooey, golden perfection – bringing just the right amount of heat to balance their crunchy outside and melty center.

Culver’s Jalapeño Cheese Curds

This is the second year in a row the national restaurant chain has introduced a limited-time-only Cheese Curd flavor on National Cheese Curd Day. In 2015, Culver’s founded the holiday to celebrate the beloved Midwest delicacy. Now in its 10th year, the holiday continues to encourage curd lovers across the country to embrace the unique and distinctly Wisconsin flavor of cheese curds.

“We’ve always believed cheese curds deserve their moment in the spotlight, and this year we’re turning up the heat,” said Kasey McDonald, Culver’s head of culinary. “Our Jalapeño Cheese Curds bring a new take to a Midwest classic. They’re crispy, melty and just spicy enough to keep you coming back for more.”

“Curdtoberfest is our way of saying, ‘Let’s celebrate cheese curds!’ by taking the spirit of Oktoberfest and adding our own Culver’s twist on the tradition,” said Emily Patterson, Culver’s VP of marketing. “It’s a month packed with cheesy goodness, Midwest pride and a lot of fun.”

For six generations the Young family has been running the dairy farm in Yellow Springs.  This working farm has grown over the years.  In the 60’s they got into the ice cream business, in the 70’s they added the bakery, in the 80’s they built the restaurants, in the 90’s they added entertainment with miniature golf, batting cages and driving range and eight years ago they added cheese making to the line up and this week they celebrate all things cheese!

 

Watch or join the fun run!  ‘The Cheddar Challenge‘ – a 5k trail run starting at 9am on Saturday, June 10th.  They’re expecting up to 1,000 5K runners and walkers!

Fresh Cheddar Curds (cheese before it is pressed and aged)

Curds are just fresh cheddar cheese that haven’t been pressed into a hoop and aged. Curds have a mild taste — they haven’t developed the stronger cheddar flavor.  Curds are delicious as a snack and can be used in many tasty ways.  Their best selling curd is Young’s Deep fried breaded cheddar cheese curds, sold as a side item at both restaurants in traditional, buffalo and Sweet chili style.
