Murals in Menomonie Announces Mural Location

Did you know that Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa was invented here in Menomonie and is still produced here today by Conagra? Charles Sanna's family owned Sanna Dairy Engineers, which had been supplying powdered coffee creamer packets to American troops during the Korean War. To meet demand, they produced more than they needed, but ended up with a surplus after the war. From his stove in Menomonie, Charles used the extra coffee creamer to develop what we now know as Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa! This mural will feature eye-catching elements of the original Swiss Miss brand and box design.

Project Lead: Joy Hernandez from Indianapolis, IN
