Tre Stelle Lactose-Free Cream Cheese, 200 g
Lactase in the pot. Denmark on the sheet.
Tre Stelle's lactose-free 200 g tub is buttermilk and cream, salt, lactase enzyme, and culture. The enzyme is what the page uses to take lactose out. Each 30 g spoon shows 60 calories, with 5 g fat, 2 g protein, and 95 mg sodium. Potassium on that spoon is 50 mg.
Arla's Canadian pro page for this exact pack still ends the spec with Holstebro CreamCheese, DK M198 EC. Lactose-free is a recipe change, not a change of country.
Refrigerate it. The page says do not freeze it. It is still a milk product, so the allergen does not disappear with the lactose.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Tre Stelle lactose-free cream cheese made in Canada?
No. Arla lists Holstebro CreamCheese, DK M198 EC on the Canadian sheet for this 200 g lactose-free pack. The code belongs to a dairy in Denmark.
How does Tre Stelle remove the lactose?
The ingredient line adds lactase enzyme to pasteurized buttermilk and cream, salt, and culture. Lactase breaks lactose down. The tub is still milk, so it is not a dairy-free spread.
How many calories are in the lactose-free tub?
A 30 g spoon is 60 calories. Next to that number the panel puts fat at 5 g, protein at 2 g, sodium at 95 mg, and potassium at 50 mg.
Who sells Tre Stelle lactose-free cream cheese in Canada?
The brand site is run by Arla Foods Inc. Its registered office is 675 Rivermede Road, Concord, Ontario. The parent co-op is in Denmark.
Can you freeze the lactose-free tub?
The product page says to keep it refrigerated and not to freeze it. That instruction matches the other Tre Stelle cream cheese tubs.
