Soft cheeses: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers a range of dairy products that are soft in texture, including cream cheese, cottage cheese, fromage frais, and quark. These cheeses are often used as spreads, in cooking, or as ingredients in desserts and dips. When looking at packaged soft cheeses, the ingredient list typically shows the main components, such as milk, cream, and cultures. The nutrition label provides information on energy, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrates, sugars, and salt content per serving. For products like fromage frais, sugars may include those naturally present in milk (lactose) and any added sugars. The NHS Eatwell Guide suggests that dairy products can be a source of protein and calcium. Some soft cheeses may be a source of fibre if ingredients such as seeds or grains are added. The salt content is also shown on the label, and the government advises that adults should consume no more than 6g of salt per day. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
