Best Answer

Cottage cheese and other soft cheeses do not freeze well. If used in a recipe (like lasagne filling, cake) they hold up pretty well, but you may find them grainier than you like. Hard cheese freezes very well (make small 1/2 pound packages) but will be much crumblier when thawed out. Another answer:

Because cottage cheese contains some liquid, it can be frozen, but only kind of. The liquid will only form ice crystals in it.

Cream cheese can be frozen if done right. If you wrap it in freezer paper and then put it in a zip-lock bag and get all the air out it will freeze. If the block is just placed into the freezer directly then the milk will crumble and the water will be separated out and it won't freeze.

Yes, you can freeze cream cheese. When you are ready to use it, be sure to get it out of the freezer in plenty of time to allow it to thaw at room temperature before using.
