Bruegger's cream cheese is made from a secret recipe, and it truly is fresh from the farm! Our own manufacturing process in the renowned dairy state of Vermont provides the freshest cream cheese available, starting with the finest cream. You won't find a smoother, creamier cream cheese anywhere. Whether you enjoy one of our tempting cream cheeses spread on a warm bagel on your way to work, or take a tub home with your next dozen bagels, you know you'll be experiencing the very best quality and taste.

Of course, it all starts with those Vermont cows, but next we make sure our cream cheese is chock full of great ingredients - chunks of hand-chopped vegetables in the Garden Veggie, pure honey and crunchy walnuts in our Honey Walnut, bits of berries in our Strawberry, cool crunchy cucumbers and tangy dill in Cucumber Dill.

To get a little bit technical, we make our cream cheese using a special proprietary process called "direct set," which means we use natural organic acids to "directly" set the cheese. Other cream cheeses use bacterial cultures to produce the acids that set the cheese. Our method produces no whey byproducts and allows us to add our ingredients at a much lower temperature, which maintains better consistency, texture, color, flavor and nutritional value.

Bruegger's cream cheese is available in an assortment of flavors in convenient take-home tubs. Flavors may vary from bakery to bakery.

*Cream cheese varieties vary by bakery location.
