Whisps Cheddar Cheese Crisps

Whisps are a popular brand of protein-rich snacks made primarily from 100% real cheese that has been grated and baked into a crispy texture. Originally developed by Schuman Cheese, a fourth-generation family-owned Italian cheese importer based in New Jersey, the brand was launched to provide a high-protein, low-carb alternative to traditional crackers and chips.

In 2021, the brand was acquired by the investment firm Paine Schwartz Partners, which focuses exclusively on sustainable food chain investing. Today, Whisps is managed under the Whisps Snacks company. The products are primarily manufactured in the United States, utilizing domestic dairy resources to produce their variety of cheese-based snacks. The brand has grown significantly, expanding from its original Parmesan flavor to include a wide range of options like Cheddar, Asiago, and Pepper Jack, catering to consumers looking for gluten-free and keto-friendly snack options.
