The world-famous New York Cheesecake is great, there’s no doubt about that, but perhaps what could rival its prestige is the Burnt Basque Cheesecake. The cheesecake originated decades ago in San Sebastian, Spain, the Basque region’s capital, where chef Santiago Rivera created the recipe for the La Viña restaurant.
Basque Cheesecakes break all the rules of our definition of what a “cheesecake” should be – it’s burnt, it doesn’t have a crust, and it looks out of this world. But take a slice out of one and you’ll discover why this food trend is here to stay. Here are local bakeries and shops where you can get your fill of the burnt cheesecake.
Basque Burnt Cheesecakes from La Vienne Bakery comes in three sizes: a ¼ slice (P249), a Petite Tin Can (P399), and a Whole Tin Can (P988). Simply looking at the photos will make your mouth water what more getting a bite of that creamy goodness with a deliciously caramel-ly burnt top. The bakery delivers to select areas in Pampanga and only delivers every Wednesdays and Sundays in Metro Manila. Visit their website to place your orders.
Many who have tasted Kaye Termulo-Garcia’s creation will attest that it can convert non-cheesecake lovers to fans of the treat.

Basque MNL’s burnt cheesecake comes with a twist – it’s available layered in matcha flavor.

Pair it with hot tea or coffee and it’s the perfect mid-day snack. Send Basque MNL a message on Instagram for orders or reach them through Viber 0917 583 5588.
