Linda Christensen didn't start as a sculptor, but the more than 500 busts she's churned out have built her a solid reputation.

Thousands will watch as she molds a 90-pound block of butter into the likeness of the Midwest Dairy Association's newly crowned "Princess Kay of the Milky Way." Then she'll carve busts of the 11 finalists. Slideshow
