What is the difference between cream cheese, labneh, and mascarpone?
All three are fresh, spreadable cheeses; they differ in their raw materials and fat content. This difference is directly reflected in the dessert.

Why use cream cheese for cheesecake?
What gives cheesecake its structure is the protein-to-fat ratio of the cheese . Cream cheese holds up well during baking: it rises in the oven, settles as it cools, and retains its shape when sliced.
Cheesecakes made with labneh are tangier and softer; those made with mascarpone are creamier and less firm. The base of a classic New York-style cheesecake is cream cheese.
How many cheesecakes does a 2.5 kg bucket make?
A 22–24 cm cheesecake pan typically calls for 700–900 g of cream cheese. Based on that, a 2.5 kg tub yields roughly 3 pans.
Based on 25–30 g per person for breakfast service, the same bucket yields 80–100 servings. To calculate the cost per serving, you can divide the current bucket price listed on the page by these numbers.
Who is it suitable for?
- Bakeries and dessert shops
- Cafes, brunch, and bagel concepts
- Hotel bakery and breakfast areas
- Catering and Group Meals
- Sandwich and deli concepts
Why does cheesecake batter crack?
There are two reasons: over-beating and sudden temperature changes. When the batter is over-beaten, air gets trapped in it; it rises in the oven and collapses as it cools, causing the surface to crack.
Note: Use cream cheese at near-room temperature; mix on low speed for a short time; cook using the bain-marie method; and let it cool slowly with the oven door slightly ajar after turning off the oven.
Is it used in hot dishes?
Yes—cream cheese is more heat-resistant than labneh and is less likely to curdle in sauces. Still, it shouldn’t be brought to a boil; it should be added little by little while the heat is low.
For high-risk recipes, temper the mixture: take a ladleful of the hot sauce and stir it into the cheese, then return the mixture to the pot.
How should it be stored?
Store at +2 / +4 °C. Close the lid after each use, and do not dip a dirty spoon into the container —cross-contamination is the most common cause of spoilage in fresh cheeses.
Do not pour the amount you have taken out into a separate container back into the bucket. Consume the opened product within a few days.
Can it be frozen?
It can be frozen for use in baked dishes (such as cheesecake or pie fillings); it must be stirred thoroughly after thawing. Cream cheese intended to be spread and served cold should not be frozen—it will separate and release water.
