Sliced Basque and New York cheesecakes topped with berries on a white plate

Sweet Dreams Are Made of Cheese


You don’t have to travel the world or the seven seas to find the best cheesecake—learn how to bake two distinct, yet equally delightful, cheesecakes in this fun and fabulous class.

First, master the classic New York cheesecake, featuring a smooth vanilla cheese filling in a buttery biscuit crust, topped with fresh berries and Chantilly cream. Then, uncover the secrets of the Basque cheesecake, famed for its silky, custard-like interior and caramelised crust, which adds a subtle smoky flavor.

Feel gouda about your baking skills and impress your friends with restaurant-quality results. A light lunch is provided and all baked goods are yours to take home—just bring your own containers in keeping with our sustainability policy.

Participants will also receive a certificate of attendance.
