Featuring the bold taste of hot chilis and the sweetness of honey, the new spread is a tasty way to warm up on a cold winter day. Bruegger’s Bagels' new Sriracha Honey Cream Cheese is a brand new spread that combines the brand's iconic, made-in-Vermont cream cheese with Sriracha hot chili sauce and sweet clover honey. The result is a sweet and spicy condiment that is used to create two tasty new sandwiches. The first is the Sriracha Honey Sunrise breakfast sandwich, which pairs the spicy cream cheese with peppered bacon, cheddar cheese, and a fresh-cracked egg. The second new menu addition is the Sweet Heat Turkey Sandwich, which combines Sriracha Honey Cream Cheese with roasted turkey, bell peppers, cheddar cheese, and an extra squirt of Sriracha sauce. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.6/10 - Popularity: 21% | Activity: 18% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Spicy Cream Cheese:** Hot chili cream cheeses are gaining popularity as a unique flavor combination for sandwiches and other dishes. - **Sriracha-infused Products:** The use of Sriracha sauce in a variety of food products, such as cream cheese, is a growing trend in the culinary industry. - **Sweet and Spicy Combinations:** The combination of sweet and spicy flavors, such as honey and chili, presents opportunities for innovative condiments and menu items. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fast Food:** Fast food chains and restaurants can incorporate hot chili cream cheeses into their menu offerings to attract customers looking for bold and unique flavors. - **Dairy:** Dairy companies can explore the development of spicy cream cheese variations to cater to the increasing demand for new and exciting flavors. - **Sandwich Shops:** Sandwich shops can create innovative sandwiches by using sriracha-infused cream cheese as a key ingredient, appealing to customers seeking bold and flavorful options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spicy-sweet Chicken Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-honey-hot-chicken-sandwich.md) - [Spicy Hybrid Bagels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jalapeo-cheddar-bagels.md) - [Spicy-Sweet Chicken Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honey-sriracha-chicken-sandwich.md) - [Hot Honey Breakfast Sandwiches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-honey-bacon-sandwich.md) - [Limited-Time Honey-Inspired Summer Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popup-bagels1.md) - [Festive Cream Cheese Spreads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rainbow-cookie-cream-cheese.md) - [Savory Summertime Bagel Spreads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jeffs-bagel-run-spreads.md) - [Hot Sauce-Seasoned Bagel Chips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/franks-redhot-bagel-chips.md) - [Spiced Honey Cheese Curds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spiced-honey-cheese-curds.md)
