Tre Stelle Light Cream Cheese, 200 g
Buttermilk, not a skim-milk base.
This lighter Tre Stelle tub is 200 g and swaps in pasteurized buttermilk plus cream, salt, and culture. A 30 g serving is 60 calories and 5 g of fat, against 80 calories and 7 g of fat in the plain tub. Protein is 2 g. Sodium stays at 95 mg.
The same Canadian Arla catalogue still prints the Holstebro, Denmark establishment line on this lighter pack. Lower fat does not move the plant.
Keep it refrigerated. The brand says freezing is a no. A little liquid on top is called out on the product page, same as the plain version.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Tre Stelle Light Cream Cheese made in Canada?
No. Arla's Canadian catalogue puts Holstebro CreamCheese, DK M198 EC on this lighter 200 g pack. The code is a Danish dairy mark. Cutting the fat does not change the plant.
How is Tre Stelle light cream cheese different from the original?
The light recipe is buttermilk plus cream. Each 30 g spoon lands at 60 calories, 5 g fat, and 2 g protein. The plain recipe is cream plus skim milk, and that spoon is richer: 80 calories with 7 g fat.
