Default Cream Cheese

Do any helpful members know were I can purchase the above in and around Valencia.
Want to make a carrot cake with frosting but cannot find cream cheese in Mercadona or Consum...

Philadelphia is available everywhere and most supermarkets, including Mercadona, have their own (cheaper). brand. The generic name for cream cheese in Spain is "Queso Filadefia"

Default Re: Cream Cheese

I'd stick with Philly, which is available everywhere and the original cream cheese—invented over 150 years ago.

But creme fraiche, or nata fresca, is a completely different product from cream cheese and not at all suitable for use in cake frosting which is what the OP wants it for.

Default Re: Cream Cheese

I know Philly and the store brands - I use them for a no bake cheesecake but it totally did not register in my head that it was "cream cheese" while looking in the market..
I was looking for a "block" of cheese, not a tub...
Thanks to all....

My better half uses queso de untar light from Mercadona for making a carrot cake. No complaints from me.

Default Re: Cream Cheese

I use the generic stuff for things like cheesecakes, etc., but for spreading on a nice canapé, I go for the Philly.
