Cream Cheese

Great Taste 2020 Award-winning product

Meet the first member of harmonica’s dairy family that won 1 star from the prestigious UK-based Great Taste Awards in 2020. We’ve always wanted to create a real, delicious cream cheese. We spent a long time searching for the right recipe and developing the craftsmanship to get the desired smoothness, texture and flavor. We succeeded in making the traditional cream cheese that our older relatives may remember. The one with the slight yogurt-like taste, creamy flavor and velvety buttery texture. You’ll remember it too.

“The colour of cream on the top of a bottle of milk. This sliceable cream cheese has a light acidity that keeps it fresh and clean. It has a smooth, velvety texture in the mouth that’s quite lovely.”

“This cream cheese has an interesting nose, a smooth, slightly chalky yet creamy and uncloying flavour, a gentle acidity and a lingering flavour. Useful in a multitude of ways.”

What's in it

Organic milk from the Troyan area in the Balkan mountains, organic cream. We only add a traditional bulgarian dairy culture and a pinch of salt. Nothing else!

How it's made

The first rule of thumb for creating a successful recipe is to pick the best quality ingredients. Culinary technique is just as important. To achieve the light milky flavour and that fluffy sensation in the mouth, we strain the cheese really slowly through a very fine strainer. We use a traditional culture for butter and the straining is done at a low temperature to achieve that creamy flavour that we like so much. To become as velvety as we want it, our cream cheese needs slow straining, which lengthens the process of production. That's how we do it. We don't rush and we don't add anything to set it. We just strain it long enough at the right temperature.
