There are 16 ounces in 1 pound. So if you have 3 pounds of cream cheese, you have 48 ounces. Therefore, if all you need is 5 - 8oz packages (40 oz. total), then you have more than enough.
Two 8-ounce blocks of cream cheese would make 16 ounces. Four 4-ounce blocks of cream cheese would make 16 ounces.
There are 16 ounces to a pound, thus an 8 ounce package of cream cheese is 1/2 pound. If you want 2 1/2 pounds of cream cheese, you want 5 packages of cream cheese.I assume that "2 12 pounds" means 2 1/2 pounds, but if you wanted a different amount, you can do one of the following calculations:a) Multiply the number of pounds by 2 (which is the same as dividing by the 1/2 lb weight of the package of cream cheese) to determine the number of packages;orb) Convert the number of pounds to ounces by multiplying by 16, then dividing that amount by 8 (the weight of the package of cream cheese in ounces) to determine the number of packages.
3.4 pounds of cream cheese is equal to 54.4 ounces.
I have never seen cream cheese in ounce bars. However 16 ounces of anything makes 1 pound.
On the back of the packages it will tell you the calories.
Most cream cheese is available in 8-ounce bricks. However, you can also find smaller 3-ounce bricks of cream cheese.
1 ounce of cream cheese equals 2 tablespoons.
An ounce of cream cheese equals 2 tablespoons
One tablespoon is 15 gm. So 1 tbsp is 1/2 an ounce of goat cheese.

They weigh exactly the same. An ounce is an ounces no matter what it is.
One pound equals to 16 ounces and one ounce equals 0.06 of a pound. Also this relates only to solid (weight) ounces. There are two different kinds of ounces, ounces of weight/mass and ounces of volume (fluid). This can change when you are using the ounces to measure a non-liquid such as flour or sugar since the weight of dry items is not the same as their volume. An ounce of volume is called a "fluid ounce." That all being said, cream cheese is measured by mass (weight), so 8 ounces of cream cheese is half a pound. You will need two 8 ounce packages.
