Philadelphia, the popular cream cheese brand, is expanding its product line this fall to help make holiday baking easier.
For the past 150 years, the Kraft Heinz product has been the go-to cream cheese for everything from topping a bagel to whipping up a batch of Buffalo chicken dip, as well as, of course, baking cheesecake — and now the brand is making that process even easier.
According to the brand, Philadelphia Cream Cheese sells more than 50 million pounds of cream cheese each holiday season as people prepare their meals and desserts.
Now, their two new products, Philadelphia Frozen Cheesecake and Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting, will make it easier for fans to get that holiday flavor they love without all the work.
Philadelphia Frozen Cheesecake is the first-ever frozen cheesecake from a mainstream cream cheese brand, available in two flavors: Original and Strawberry Swirl.
The brand estimates that nearly 50 million slices of cheesecake are made with Philadelphia cream cheese every holiday season, and they spend three years developing the cheesecake to make sure it was the perfect balance of taste, texture and convenience.
Each cake is pre-sliced, made with Philadelphia cream cheese as the first ingredient, with no artificial flavors or dyes, and a golden graham cracker crust. For the Strawberry Swirl flavor, the cake also has hand-drizzled strawberry sauce.
While cheesecake is a popular holiday dessert, Philadelphia knows people love it at all times of year, so it’s making the all-new Frozen Cheesecake a permanent addition to their product lineup.
Additionally, Philadelphia is launching a new flavor of its refrigerated cream cheese frosting: Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting.
Exactly one year about the cream cheese frosting debuted and sold nearly one million units, the company is giving fans more of what they love. The new flavor is the first in a line of seasonal flavors of cream cheese frosting, with more set to hit shelves in the coming months.
“Dessert is a daily ritual for many, but not everyone has the time to create holiday classics like cheesecake and cream cheese frosting from scratch every time,” Kelli Srivastava, senior brand manager for Philadelphia cream cheese, said in a statement.
“After three years of development, our new Frozen Cheesecake offers an effortless way to serve a holiday favorite, while our Cinnamon Frosting brings a nostalgic flavor with its blend of warm cinnamon and brown sugar. With more convenient ways to enjoy our signature creaminess, these innovations make it easier than ever to create delicious moments with Philadelphia.”
