Frequently Asked Questions

How Long Does the Cheesecake Last in the Fridge?

Think of cheesecake as a treasure trove of flavors. I’ve found that when stored properly, it stays fresh in the fridge for about five to seven days, keeping all that delicious cheesecake goodness intact.

Can I Freeze Leftover Cheesecake?
