Almette Kräuter Alpenfrischkäse

Almette is a prominent German brand of cream cheese, easily recognizable by its signature wooden-tub-style packaging. Launched in Germany in the 1960s, it quickly became a market leader in the 'fridge-fresh' cream cheese category. The brand emphasizes the use of Alpine milk and natural ingredients, specifically highlighting its 'Alpenfrischkäse' (Alpine fresh cheese) status.

Historically, Almette was developed and produced by the German dairy company Karwendel-Werke Huber. For several decades, the brand has been a staple in European supermarkets. Today, the brand is owned by the French dairy giant Groupe Savencia (formerly Soparind Bongrain), which acquired the brand to expand its presence in the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). Production remains primarily focused in Germany to maintain its brand heritage and logistical proximity to Alpine milk sources.
