Heritage and Producer

Ca.Form traces its origins back to the Chiomento family, whose passion for dairy has been passed down through generations. The original dairy was built in 1887 and inaugurated in 1888, in a region long devoted to cattle farming and cheesemaking.

Located near the Asiago Plateau, the dairy has always worked closely with the traditions of Northern Italian mountain cheeses. Over time, the company modernised its equipment while keeping the same focus: transforming good milk into cheeses that are simple, reliable, and enjoyable to share.

Today, Ca.Form continues this legacy under the broader name Latterie Venete 1887, while still producing cheeses that reflect the dairy heritage of the Veneto region.

Ingredients: Pasteurised cow's milk, salt, cultures, animal rennet.
