this is the best cream cheese especially for baking. it is soft and creamy and blends really smoothly. it is also good on bagels and other foods in which you would spread it on. i only use this brand when i make cheese cake because it is the smoothest.

I most recently used Philadelphia cream cheese to make (an altered version of) Ina Garten’s Beatty Chocolate Cake Frosting. I initially screwed up the frosting by halving the recipe and putting it in the Vitamix Aer mixer without enough liquid / ingredients. To fix it, I added half a brick of this cream cheese, and it worked out wonderfully—giving the frosting a creamy, tangy richness that balanced the chocolate perfectly. The modification exceeded my expectations of the original (mocha) recipe, and it paired well with a rich chocolate cake base. Smooth and reliable, this cream cheese blends well with both sweet and savory recipes. Whether for frosting or dips, it always delivers consistent quality and flavor. A must-have in my fridge for baking and beyond.

I recommend this cream cheese of Philadelphia original because it's literally the best cream cheese I've tasted, it's not so salty, it's so creamy, tasty, and u can use this for create a looooot of dishes, from a simple toast with cream cheese to a salad and gourmet food, u can prepare whatever u want at any moment with this.

I love the texture Philadelphia cream cheese creates in frosting, I love the smooth texture on a freshly toasted bagel, and as a kid, we grew up eating Philadelphia cream cheese and jelly sandwiches! This is the only brand we have used and we will continue using!!

This is the only brand of cream cheese I will buy. It doesn't have that gross tangy flavor that other brands of cream cheese give off, and the consistency is always perfect. Even when baking, this is the only brand of cream cheese that exists to me. Nothing else compares!

Philadelphia Cream Cheese 8 oz block is a kitchen essential with its creamy texture and rich flavor, perfect for spreading, dipping, or baking. Made with real milk and cream, its resealable packaging ensures freshness. It's a must-have for any cheese lover's fridge.

My go-to brand when purchasing cream cheese. This is one of the higher priced brands, but I never stray from buying it! I hardly use this for breakfast purposes, but instead always buy these brand as one of my key ingredients when baking. Cream cheese frosting anyone?

I love cream cheese and Philadelphia Cream Cheese is my favorite brand. I usually get the boxes because cream cheese is so versatile and can be used in many types of dishes. My favorite is just a basic plain bagel and plain cream cheese! Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese

I feel like this is a classic staple for cooking. The Philadelphia brand is always number one. This year Ive branched out in the ways i use cream cheese now that my husband is eating keto. I have used it in many crockpot recipes, to make sauces, and more. Always purchasing!

I am so disappointed in the Philadelphia cream cheese these days. They are now adding carob bean gum in it and the taste is very odd. IN fact when you make cheese cake the sugar enhances the carob bean taste. It ruined my Christmas cheesecake, and made me sick to my stomach. I only put one star because I had to.
