hobby of baking gifts for family and friends into a successful
culinary business has taken her enterprise nationwide at www.ddgourmet.com
.
Donna "Dee Dee" Norton, a mother and grandmother, founded Dee Dee's
Gourmet Cheese Straws in 1999. For many hostesses, cheese straws are
an essential component of appetizer trays. Norton has set a new
standard for cheese straws through the use of high-quality aged real
sharp cheddar cheese and a unique hand-blending process with special
seasoning. She has created a cheese straw unlike most on the market
featuring a rich, buttery flavor with a spicy Southern zing. Norton's
secret blending technique also creates a perfect, crispy crunch.
Norton says, "The biggest compliment, and the one I hear most often,
is when people tell me my cheese straws remind me of their
grandmother's. That is exactly our intention and I am thrilled beyond
words that after many years of growing Dee Dee's Gourmet Cheese Straws
by word of mouth, we have built the company to deliver Dee Dee's
Gourmet Cheese Straws coast-to-coast."
Dee Dee's Gourmet Cheese Straws are available in a variety of
different sizes. In plastic re-closable, tamper-proof containers, the
cheese straws are sold in 4.125 oz., 8.125 oz., 14 oz. and 1.5 lb
containers. In tins, they are available in 8.125 oz & 12 oz. Dee
Dee's Gourmet Cheese Straws are also available in a smaller size straw
called "Little Gemmies" that are approximately 1" in length and
approximately 1.66 grams per Gemmie and are available in the same
packaging options listed above.
