📜 History & Formation
Cheesecake dates back to Ancient Greece, but the New York-style cheesecake we love today is a 20th-century American creation. The white chocolate twist brings luxury, and strawberries add brightness and romance.
This dessert became popular in the 80s and 90s as white chocolate rose in status — especially for Valentine’s and anniversaries. It’s now considered a decadent showstopper, often reserved for meaningful moments.
