What a wonderful week at Maleny Cheese!

This week we had the pleasure of welcoming three very different groups to our dairy destination, each bringing their own stories, smiles and enthusiasm.

🚌 We hosted a lovely group of seniors travelling with Aurora Bus Tours from New South Wales.

🎓 We welcomed students from Bundaberg State High School who were exploring the Sunshine Coast region as part of a three-day educational tour.

🤝 On Thursday afternoon, we were delighted to host the monthly networking event for CPA Sunshine Coast. A special thank you to the group for presenting Sara and Tanya with a beautiful branded cheese board, which will certainly see plenty of use in the years ahead!

We love sharing our passion for locally made cheese, yoghurt and the dairy industry with visitors from near and far. Thank you to everyone who visited this week and helped make it such a memorable one.

Interested in bringing your group to Maleny Cheese? We'd love to welcome you.

*** 2026 DIAA Australian Awards of Excellence ***

Maleny Cheese is incredibly proud to share that we have taken out the Highest Scoring Greek-Style Yoghurt category at the 2026 DIAA Australian Awards of Excellence.

With more than 1,000 entries across the competition, having three of our Maleny Gourmet yoghurts named as finalists was an outstanding achievement in itself:

* Apple & Cinnamon
* Ginger
* Passionfruit

Out of 11 finalists in the category, our Passionfruit Yoghurt was awarded the category winner.

To top it off, we were also honoured to receive the award for Highest Scoring Cultured Dairy Product across the entire competition — an achievement that reflects the dedication and passion of our incredible team.

We would also like to congratulate our friends at Maleny Dairies who were awarded Best Milk of the Competition.

An incredible result for the Maleny region and Queensland dairy.

We will be closed today, Friday 29 May for the Maleny Show Public Holiday.

We look forward to seeing you on Saturday when we reopen from 10am-3pm.

Recently, Maleny Cheese was incredibly proud to join our fellow Maleny producers at Queensland Parliament House, showcasing the high-quality products produced here on the range including Maleny Dairies, Maleny Food Co and Maleny Buffalo.

Today we had a wonderful Women in Agriculture workshop hosted by the Lake Baroon Catchment Care Group (Lake Baroon Catchment Care Group), held at Maleny Cheese Cafe.

Members enjoyed a relaxed morning tea and a guided tasting experience, alongside an insightful talk from Sara Bucher on the journey of Obi Obi Dairy and Maleny Cheese—from on-farm water quality initiatives through to a cheese-making business with over 22 years of history.

We also trialled our new self-guided cheese tasting placement today, and it was fantastic to see people engaging at their own pace while learning more about the cheeses and the story behind them. The feedback and atmosphere made it a very special part of the experience.

Handcrafted, handwrapped, and full of flavour.

Our Camembert, Creamy Brie, and Triple Cream Brie are made using fresh Maleny hinterland milk and traditional methods.

Camembert: soft and smooth, with a fresh, mushroom-like flavour

Creamy Brie: rich and buttery, with a single portion of cream added

Triple Cream Brie: Maleny Dairies cream for an extra luscious texture

Each cheese is handwrapped, preserving its delicate white mould rind and ensuring peak quality.

Small-batch and proudly local.
