Smooth, stable and reliable, it whips and spreads without splitting.
What Philadelphia is
Philadelphia is a fresh cream cheese made from milk and cream, with a dense, velvety, easily spreadable texture. First created in the United States in 1872, it has become the global reference for cream cheese, equally at home in sweet and savoury cooking.
The brand
Philadelphia is produced by Mondelez. For the European market it is made in Germany to a consistent recipe, which is what gives professionals the reliability they need for large-batch desserts and service.
