Philadelphia's rich
flavour and unique texture
consistently proves its worth for chefs across the industry in so many of their dishes.
"There are plenty of cream cheeses on the market, but only Philly has the rich flavour and texture that makes dishes sing."
Nicole Pisani, Head Chef, Gayhurst School
Discover how Philadelphia gets its fresh, creamy taste and smooth, consistent texture.
We make it pretty good, pretty quick
We keep our production facilities close to our milk supplies, so we can transform fresh milk into Philadelphia in just 48 hours.
A balancing act
We pasteurise sweet milk with added cream to balance the fat content. Next, we add sour milk for acidity and then we extract the water.
Stirred to smooth perfection
Finally, we break down the fats and proteins to create the smooth creamy texture that's unique to Philadelphia.
