Cream puffs

The Wisconsin State Fair is held annually in West Allis, a suburb close to Milwaukee. The fair, which is packed with food, entertainment, and festivities, also sells the original cream puff, which many Wisconsinites regards as a must-have while going to the fair. This pastry has a crusty exterior and a sweet, freshly whipped cream filling. Flaky, sweet, and delectably sloppy describe it.

According to Shepherd Express, Charles Kremer invented the cream puff in 1924. Governor John Brane then asked Kremer to create a treat to commemorate Wisconsin's popularity with the dairy industry. Kramer was a good pick because his family ran a bakery in Milwaukee. And as a result of this bequest, the first cream puff was created. The market has more than 200 different food exhibitors, but the cream puffs continue to draw a sizable throng. The business is managed by the Wisconsin Bakers Association every year, and throughout the fair, about 350,000 puffs are served.
