In Minnesota, ‘dairy princesses’ take home a 90-pound butter bust of their own heads

Thornson, 20, was crowned from the town of Wiferley, as Princess 72 of the Milky Way on Wednesday night. And its first official duty as the goodwill ambassador to the families of the dairy farm, which is 1,800 dairy in the state, gathered and seated in a studio planted from the glass at 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4 Celsius) where Fairoers gathered to watch Kulzer converts the mass of 90 lbs (41 kg) of the milk butter to art.

Other state exhibitions also feature butter sculptures. Iowa State exhibition is famous for its life cow for more than a century. A replica will be displayed at the Renwik exhibition of the Smithsonian Foundation in Washington, starting on Saturday. The New York State Little Statue 2025, which was unveiled on Tuesday, as a 900 -pound gesture (410 kg) to the 125th anniversary of “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz” by New York State L. Frank Baum.

But in the state of Minnesota, all the ten contestants in the ten dairy dairy finals are getting their heads sculpted before a constantly changing direct audience. Each one gets the transfer of sculptures to the house after the exhibition, along with a bucket of scraps. They can freeze their deep heads as souvenirs or share them with family and friends, and may spread some butter to the atom to a piece.

Thorson said that she is wearing her crown on her head, her charger over her coat and her gloves folded on her bosom, she loves to break from about 80 degrees (27 ° C) abroad.

But she added that she was a “unrealistic experience” to find herself in the center of attention because her mother was transporting her to the exhibition and her milk has been standing since she was at least 3. She said that her mother was in the finals of Princess Kay in 1996.

Thurson expressed its confidence that the Colors would be fair.

“I have a lot of faith in him. I usually do not believe in many people because I love to be in control at times,” said South Dakota State University. “So it is really good to sit and relax and know that he will do a great job.”

It is the fourth year of Kulzer as the official butter sculptors of the exhibition. The artist, who usually recedes with clay, said that the butter is different, and that it is more difficult, more like a sculpting stone.

“The temperature makes a big difference,” he said. “If you are working at a temperature of 50 degrees, this is like clay. In 40 degrees here, it looks like your refrigerator. So you cut a knife to the butter stick, it looks difficult and peel.”

But Coller said that the exhibition disturbed him “very fun” even though he works a little hard in the cold.

He said: “My fingers become a bit harsh, so I have two layers on my hands. But you cannot put a layer too much because you still need to intuitively.” “My fingers were cramping because it was cold, so you take a break when you need it.”
