Philadelphia Cream Cheese Debuts the Bonut, the First-Ever Bagel Donut Featuring New Blueberry and Pineapple Cream Cheese Flavours
In celebration of National Donut Day, Canada's favourite cream cheese brand partners with beloved bagel shops to offer free Bonuts nationwide
TORONTO, June 4, 2025 /CNW/ - Today, Philadelphia cream cheese launches the Bonut – a simple, yet revolutionary mashup of two breakfast staples. Made possible by the arrival of Philadelphia's two new cream cheese flavours, Blueberry and Pineapple, the Bonut is the first-ever bagel donut featuring the brand's newest cream cheese flavours on top of an uncut bagel, not in the middle—elevating your bagel from boring to Bonut.
With more than one third of Canadians open to changing up their breakfast routine1, the new flavours are here to transform everything you ever thought you knew about bagels and cream cheese. To celebrate this game-changing innovation, Philadelphia has teamed up with beloved bagel shops, College Street Bagels in Toronto and Fairmont Bagel in Montreal, to give away free Bonuts on June 6, 2025 - National Donut Day beginning at 7:00 a.m. ET, while supplies last. Fans will also be able to purchase them via Uber Eats for a limited time.
Savory cream cheese flavours make up 89% of the category2, yet nearly half of consumers prefer sweet offerings, leaving them void of many options. As the cream cheese category leader, Philadelphia recognized this opportunity to delight Canadians with its newest flavour offerings in over five years. New-to-category flavours, Blueberry and Pineapple, feature the brand's signature creamy texture and taste along with real fruit chunks – bringing flavour back to morning breakfast.
"For over 150 years, our goal at Philadelphia has been to bring fans new and exciting experiences to elevate their everyday food occasions," said Brian Neumann, Head of Brand & Creativity at Kraft Heinz Canada. "With flavoured cream cheese driving category growth and flavour being cited as our fans' number one purchase driver3, we are excited to bring these new sweet products to our portfolio and share how they can elevate your bagel from boring to Bonut."
Proudly prepared in Canada with no artificial flavours or colours, the new Philadelphia cream cheese flavours will be available beginning this month in 227g tubs for $4.99 CAD at select retailers nationwide.

Philadelphia's Teenshop, a college prep and mentorship organization, celebrates 40 years of "Girls with Goals"
Twenty-four years after graduating, the impact of Teenshop still brings Nadia Frazier to tears. "No one understands the power of Teenshop if you utilize it the right way," Frazier says. Now her own daughter, 14-year-old Diana, is a part of the non-profit program that's helped mold thousands of girls from our region for four decades. "I'm usually the shy kid, just me, meeting people who look like me, it made me feel more comfortable," says Diana. "She's doing so much, she's learning so much," her mom added. It's all about exposure for Teenshop members. From college prep, to mentorship, trips, and life skills, it's all because of the work of Elleanor Jean Hendley. "She's amazing, I love her so much," Diana said of Hendley. "She's so persistent in what she does." CBS Philadelphia CBS Philadelphia CBS Philadelphia Hendley worked as a reporter and host at CBS Philadelphia for 25 years. Hendley started Teenshop in 1985 in her free time to give back. "There's just no better feeling than when you see how they blossom and how they grow," Hendley told us. "Forty years later, three chapters, 3,500 alumnae, 100% college acceptance. I'm still amazed by it all," she said. "They not only survive, but they thrive and can really aim high as they're reaching for their dreams." As the organization embarks on the next 40 years, Diana — who plans to become a pediatric nurse — vows to remain part of the sisterhood, with her mom by her side. "I'm so excited for her, I'm so excited for her future, and it starts now," Nadia said. "I just can't put it into words," Diana continued. "I'm very grateful for this opportunity."

Updated look at the 15 biggest salary cap hits for the Eagles in 2025 following OTAs Updated look at the 15 biggest salary cap hits for the Philadelphia Eagles following OTAs and ahead of the mandatory minicamp The Eagles and 31 other teams reshaped their rosters during free agency and the NFL draft, and as we sit one month out from the start of training camp, the Super Bowl champions have a drastically improved roster at key positions. After watching 12 players depart in free agency, Roseman added two dynamic SEC linebackers, an All-American pass rusher, three offensive linemen, and an accomplished quarterback from Philadelphia. The defense has undergone an overhaul after defensive tackle Milton Williams (New England), Josh Sweat (Arizona), cornerback Darius Slay (Pittsburgh), cornerback Isaiah Rodgers (Minnesota), and linebacker Oren Burks (Cincinnati) all departed via free agency. With the team preparing for a Tuesday mandatory minicamp before summer break, we're looking at an updated list of the 15 biggest salary cap hits for 2025 via Over The Cap. Current cap space: $32,459,183 1. QB Jalen Hurts 2025 cap hit: $21,869,800 2. OL Lane Johnson 2025 cap hit: $18,412,000-Johnson leapfrogged A.J. Brown after reworking his contract to add 8 million over the next two years and an additional $30 million in guarantees. As he closes out his career, the soon-to-be 35-year-old Johnson will earn $48 million over the next two years, including $40 million guaranteed. Last season, Johnson ranked 1st among NFL RTs in PFF pass-blocking grade (88.1), pressure percentage (2.2%), and knockdown percentage (0.2%). He allowed zero sacks and 1 QB hit in 451 pass-blocking snaps. 3 WR A.J. Brown 2025 cap hit: $17,523,497 4. OL Jordan Mailata 2025 cap hit: $15,235,233 5. TE Dallas Goedert 2025 cap hit: $10,714,463 Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports that the Eagles and Dallas Goedert have agreed to restructure his one-year contract, which will decrease from $14.25M to $10M with up to a possible $1M. 6. WR DeVonta Smith 2025 cap hit: $7,524,510-Smith signed a 3-year, $75M contract extension, but he'll play 2025 on his fifth-year option. 7. RB Saquon Barkley 2025 cap hit: $6,661,000-Barkley agreed to a 2-year, $41 million extension with $36 million guaranteed at signing and another $15 million in incentives available. 8. OL Landon Dickerson 2025 cap hit: $6,553,000 9. DT Jalen Carter 2025 cap hit: $5,947,141 10. DT Jordan Davis 2025 cap hit: $5,399,786 The Eagles are keeping the Dawgs together, after Howie Roseman exercised defensive tackle Jordan Davis's fifth-year option for a $12.9 million salary for 2026. 11. LB Zack Baun 2025 cap hit: $4,386,000 12. K Jake Elliott 2025 cap hit: $4,180,000 13. OL Cameron Jurgens 2025 cap hit: $3,534,268 - Jurgens saw his cap hit drop after the Pro Bowl center agreed to a four-year, $68 million extension with a $39.4 million guarantee, which contractually ties him to Philadelphia through the 2029 season, per the team and his agent Ryan Tollner. A second-round draft pick in 2002 (No. 51 overall) and Jason Kelce's hand-picked successor, Jurgens was a reserve during his rookie year as the Eagles advanced to Super Bowl LVII. In year two, Jurgens started at right guard in 11 games. Last off-season, Jason Kelce retired, and Jurgens moved to his natural center position. He started 16 games in 2024 and earned Pro Bowl honors, becoming the youngest Eagles center to earn Pro Bowl recognition since Ken Farragut (also 25) in 1953. 14. DB Quinyon Mitchell 2025 cap hit: $3,367,749 15. LB Nolan Smith 2025 cap hit: $3,270,659
