There are just 44 days until the Wisconsin State Fair and this year, the Original Cream Puffs are making the summer even sweeter with some incredible news.
First, if you love a good Chocolate Cream Puff, you’re in luck. They will be available for all 11 days of the Wisconsin State Fair from Thursday, July 31 to Sunday Aug. 10. There will also be delicious Original Cream Puffs and Celebration Strawberry Cream Puffs on all of these days, thanks to UScellular.
Can’t come to the Fair? You can have Original Cream Puffs delivered right to your office, church, party or wherever you’d like from July 31 to Aug. 10 between 8 a.m. and 12 p.m. Just place your order online!
Yes, the Cream Puff Drive-Thru will also be back from Monday, Aug. 4 through Friday Aug. 8. That ensures that, if you didn’t get a fill of Cream Puffs when you visited the Fair, you can head over to the Drive-Thru to get more!
We are also happy to let you know that the Celebrity Cream Puff Eating Competition is back again! This year, it will be on Thursday, Aug. 7 and you won’t want to miss it when your favorite Wisconsin personalities compete for the winning title.
Last, but not least, Saturday, Aug. 9 has been set aside once again as the home of the Cream Puff Lovin’ Celebration, a sweet celebration that also allows fairgoers to engage in the Fairgoer Cream Puff Eating Competition!
Speaking of the Wisconsin State Fair… You also really shouldn’t miss out on the chance to save $5 on each State Fair admission ticket through Sunday, June 29. Check out all the deals, (including Original Creams 6-Packs) available at WiStateFair.com.
