Petition to Make Cream Puffs the Official Dessert of Wisconsin


From The Wheeler Report:


A SWEET STATE SYMBOL, Sen. Mary Lazich is preparing legislation to advance the Mukwonago Clarendon Avenue Fourth Grade Class project to get the cream puff designated the official Wisconsin dessert. It would be the 22nd officially designated state symbol if adopted.

“Cream puffs help support Wisconsin’s $59 billion agricultural industry with over 300,000 jobs,” Lazich said in her co-sponsorship memo. “During the State Fair 1000 gallons of whipping cream, 1500 pounds of whole eggs, and 50 gallons of whole milk are used daily to make cream puffs. Since the 2000 State Fair, cream puff fans consumed 3,614,745 cream puffs.
