zoomieyoit's national cheesecake day! in honor of it, i went back and found all my entries for a cheesecake review challenge I did two years ago.
rating: 4.5 / 10
notes: the cheesecake that started cheesecake review! i bought one on a whim and then went on a multi message rant about how cheesecakes need a crust... after that rant, i decided i needed to start a weekly cheesecake review.. i do remember being very mad and rating it low because it had no crust but it gained like half a point back because it was really cheap.
rating: 6/10
notes: bn uses cheesecake factory for their cheesecakes! this one is my usual weekly go to- i like the fluffiness and crust consistency, if not the crust being a bit thin. todays is especially pleasant as it's fresher than usual! its also the cheapest of the cheesecake selections they have, and the member discount is a nice addition! overall, a solid cheesecake.

rating: 5.5/10
notes: ok when we got home it was still frozen and i might of left my pieces out too long but theres a flavour to this cheesecake that is not unpleasant but not pleasant either. it feels very mid overall. extra half point for having a good crust however. texture is good, if a little soft, but i did leave it out so it wasnt a frozen brick. probably would buy again though for the price- $8ish? if i remember correctly. would not buy a bigger one however. size wise slice is tiny, but i got more than buying at b&n

rating: 10/10
notes: deliciously sticky filling with the perfect amount of vanillay sweetness. crust has a lovely crumble and the right crunch-chewy ratio. a bit on the pricey side at 8.85 but i can get two servings out of this. this is most definitely worth the 8.85!! support a local owned business! i will 100% stop by again and try their other flavors- they have a softserve option i want to try this summer. also their shop is super cute!!! service was super friendly and helpful too :)

rating: 10/10
notes: such a lovely fluffy cheesecake. great density, great crust. ive eaten it with and without jam and i think with is preferable!! the sweetness of the ham with a lemony frosting and vanilla flavor in the cake itself. crust has a fantastic crumble, and is more neutral than sweet. but its a good complement to the overall taste profile. the baked outside edge is also delicious and lovely. overall a wonderful cheesecake and one of my local favorites

rating: 8.5/10
notes: lovely take on both cheesecake and key lime pie! appropriately flavored- the right blend of tart and sweet. inner cream texture is a bit thick for my liking, but it is a blend cheesecake/pie.. so an acceptable pass. crust is fantastic- bonus points for such a high crust, however, crumble is a bit much for me.. still very good though. overall, a lovely little treat for a fine spring day.

rating: 6/10
notes: imagine pumpkin pie filling whipped up and turned into cheesecake. light and fluffy cake with a pretty solid graham cracker cookie crust. caramel drizzle and whipped cream do a lot for support since i feel like the cheesevake is a bit light on both pumpkin and traditional cheesecake flavors. it has hints of both but neither come through strong leading to an overall bland profile. i feel like the star is the crust on this one- a very hardy and chewy crust graham crust with the perfect amount of crumbly goodness. i think that the cinnamony crust pairs well with the overall flavor. would of liked to have seen a more pumpkiny flavor in the cheesecake but overall not too bad

notes: yet another phot of the cheesecake but no rating... this is also the last picture i found of cheesecake review :(
