Understanding Cream Cheese Nutrition
Cream Cheese is a dairy food valued for its calcium, protein and fat content. At 350 kcal per 100 g serving, it provides 6.1g of protein, 5.4g of carbohydrate and 34.3g of fat. Cream Cheese is particularly rich in saturated fat, delivering 20.4g — 100% of the daily value — in a single serving. It has modest fiber and 3.9g sugar.
For athletes and anyone tracking macros, cream cheese is calorie-dense and works well for adding calories without added volume, thanks to its fat content. With only 6.1g of protein per 350 kcal, though, it contributes little toward a protein target — it's best treated as a flavor and calorie addition rather than a protein source.
