Cream cheese is a soft, mild fresh cheese made from a mixture of cream and milk, commonly used in baking and cooking. One metric cup (250 ml) of cream cheese weighs approximately 230 grams or 8.11 ounces. It is widely used as a spread, in frosting, cheesecakes, dips, and as a filling in pastries and baked goods.

Cream cheese is often listed by weight in recipes but sold and measured by volume — getting the conversion right ensures the correct texture and richness in frostings, cheesecakes, and fillings. Measuring by grams produces more consistent results than scooping from the tub.

Also known as

  • cream cheese spread
  • Philadelphia
