Ah! You mean cream spread—basically a soft, creamy spread you can use on bread, crackers, or desserts. Could be sweet or savory depending on what you want. Here’s a clear breakdown:
🥄 Types of Cream Spreads
1. Sweet
- Cream cheese spread – classic, slightly tangy; can be plain or mixed with honey, vanilla, or chocolate.
- Nut butters + cream cheese – peanut butter or almond butter blended with cream cheese for a rich, creamy texture.
- Chocolate-hazelnut spread – like a lighter homemade version of Nutella (can be made with cocoa, hazelnuts, and a little milk).
2. Savory
- Herb cream cheese spread – mix cream cheese with chives, garlic, parsley, or dill.
- Cheese spreads – blend cheddar, gouda, or feta with cream cheese or yogurt for a soft, spreadable cheese.
- Hummus – chickpea-based creamy spread, savory and protein-rich.
