Philadelphia Cream Cheese Has 2 New Flavors Coming to Stores

Plus it's bringing back a fan favorite.

Cream cheese has earned its way to “cooking staple” status. Besides the most obvious uses, such as slathering on your favorite bagel and whipping up an event-worthy cheesecake, you can use the slightly salty and ultra-creamy ingredient in various recipes. It’s excellent for thickening Alfredo sauce, making the best dips imaginable, and works magic in slow cooker meals by adding the perfect amount of richness.

But not all brands of cream cheese live up to the hype. You may have ended up with an overly firm one that wouldn’t melt or lacked the tang needed in a recipe. Philadelphia Cream Cheese, however, is always reliable. It’s the right amount of fluffy and creamy, ensuring your pound cake is always a smash hit at the potluck. It’s so good that it was even named best in the world.

Aside from its versatile plain cream cheese bricks, Philadelphia Cream Cheese also offers a range of smooth and whipped spreads that customers can enjoy added to breakfast sandwiches or straight out of the container with their favorite dippers, such as savory crackers or crunchy pepperoni chips.

The brand is gearing up for fall with two new bold flavors, plus the return of a seasonal fan favorite.

Philadelphia Cream Cheese Adds Chipotle and French Onion to Its Whipped Spreads

Philadelphia’s stacked lineup now includes Chipotle Whipped Cream Cheese Spread and French Onion Whipped Cream Cheese Spread. The French Onion variety blends savory onion with the richness of cream cheese. For those who enjoy mild heat, the Chipotle spread will add a hint of smokiness to your snacking adventures.

The spreads are excellent for adding depth to your favorite layered taco dip or for serving up in a crowd-pleasing chip dip.

In addition to the new savory options, the brand is also bringing back a sweet seasonal favorite. Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese Spread is returning to shelves. While summer is far from over, those ready for cinnamon lattes and all things pumpkin can enjoy a little sample of fall while still taking in the warm, sunny days.

All three cream cheese spreads are now available at retailers nationwide, so be sure to look for them during your next grocery run.
