The name of this cheese apparently derives from mascarpa, a by-product extracted from the whey left over from making Stracchino. A more colorful entomology of the name's origin is the Spanish expression "mas que bueno" ("more than good"). This fresh, 75% butter-fat traditional dairy product has been coagulated with lemon juice and allowed to drain resulting in a smooth, ultra-creamy texture and mild buttery flavor.
