There is a world of difference between a cheesecake that is set in a fridge and a cheesecake that is baked in an oven. If you have ever had a proper baked cheesecake, you already know this. The texture is denser, the flavour is deeper, and every slice has a creaminess that no gelatin-based shortcut can replicate. At Exotic Cake, baking is not optional. It is how we do every single cheesecake on this page.
A real baked cheesecake starts with full-fat cream cheese, eggs, and a slow oven. That’s what develops the flavour, sets the structure, and creates that characteristic richness that keeps people coming back. Our biscuit bases are pressed firm, our fillings are never underbaked, and our toppings are chosen to complement rather than mask what is underneath.
No artificial flavours. No frozen bulk batches. Every cheesecake is baked fresh when you order it.
The one everything else gets measured against. A smooth, dense cream cheese filling on a buttery biscuit base with nothing competing for attention. Just pure, honest baked cheesecake done the way it should be. Clean flavour, perfect texture, and a slice that holds together every time.
A rich cream cheese base baked with a swirl of real blueberry compote and finished with more compote on top. Tart, fruity, and deeply satisfying. The blueberry cuts through the creaminess in exactly the right way, making every bite balanced without being boring.
Crushed Biscoff biscuits in the base, Biscoff spread blended into the filling, and a glossy pour of warm spread over the top. The caramelised, spiced flavour of Lotus runs through every single layer. A crowd favourite that has become one of our most requested bakes.
This is the one that surprises people who haven’t tried it before. Our basque cheesecake is baked at a high temperature on purpose, which gives it that signature dark, caramelised top and a soft, almost custard-like centre that is completely unlike a classic cheesecake. There is no crust. There are no toppings. Just deeply rich, slightly caramelised cream cheese that is simultaneously rustic and refined.
If you have only ever had a classic cheesecake, the burnt cheesecake is worth trying at least once. Most people who order it once never go back to not having it in their regular rotation.
Deep cocoa richness folded into a smooth cream cheese filling on a chocolate biscuit base. Rich without being too sweet, indulgent without being overwhelming. A grown-up chocolate dessert for people who take their chocolate seriously.
A classic combination done well. Smooth baked cheesecake base with a fresh strawberry topping that is fruity, bright, and just sweet enough. Light in comparison to the richer options but every bit as satisfying.
The basque cheesecake, also known as burnt cheesecake, originated in San Sebastian, Spain and has become one of the most popular cheesecake styles globally in recent years. Unlike a classic baked cheesecake which bakes slowly at a lower temperature to achieve a pale, smooth top, the basque version is baked hot and fast. This creates a deeply charred exterior, a slightly jiggly centre, and a flavour that is more caramelised and complex than a traditional cheesecake.
Neither is better. They are different experiences, and both are worth having.
What is a baked cheesecake? A baked cheesecake is made by blending cream cheese, eggs, and sugar into a filling, pouring it over a biscuit or pastry base, and baking it in an oven until set. Baking develops a richer flavour and firmer texture than no-bake alternatives, which rely on gelatin or whipped cream to hold their shape.
What is a basque cheesecake and why is it called burnt cheesecake? A basque cheesecake is a style of baked cheesecake that originated in the Basque region of Spain. It is baked at a very high temperature, which deliberately chars the top and creates a creamy, almost molten centre. The dark exterior is intentional and is what gives it the nickname burnt cheesecake. The charred top adds a slight bitterness that balances the richness of the cream cheese filling beautifully.
Is basque cheesecake the same as burnt cheesecake? Yes. Basque cheesecake and burnt cheesecake refer to the same thing. Both names describe the same high-heat baked cheesecake with a dark caramelised top and soft custardy interior.
