Cream Cheese

Traditional cream cheese is typically made with a simple mixture of cream, milk, and lactic acid bacteria, giving it a rich and tangy flavor. It tends to have a smoother texture and a more pronounced taste compared to commercial cream cheese. Traditional cream cheese is often favored for its artisanal qualities and natural ingredients.

On the other hand, commercial cream cheese, while also made from cream and milk, often contains additional stabilizers and emulsifiers to improve shelf life and consistency. It tends to have a milder flavor and a denser, more uniform texture than traditional cream cheese.
