The straight-forward answer to your question would be to indeed use NSAttributedStrings as suggested by Aseider.

It is often easier to create a cell layout with multiple labels, one for each piece of information. You can style each label individually. You can factor the cell layout code into the cell class or use Interface Builder, keeping the code that configures the cell straight-forward and readable. Dealing with attributed strings is harder as you will have to figure out the attribute ranges yourself.
