strawberry cheesecake

the cheesecake debate

Biscuit crumbs over shortcrust pastry, cream cheese over cottage cheese, strawberry cream over no cream, these are the arguments many cheesecake fans make when choosing the classic American cheesecake over German cheesecake. We also love the combination of these ingredients and are pleased to announce the creation of our new Strawberry Cheesecake Muesli - with mini butter biscuits, cream cheese flakes and strawberries. At least as delicious, but not as heavy and rich in calories. Let's make muesli for cheesecake fans great again! But where does the original come from?

CHEESECAKE, THE GERMAN WAY

Thanks to several German-language names such as "Topfentorte", "Quarktorte" or "Käsewehe" one might think that it was the Germans that invented the cheesecake. We are also creative when it comes to the implementation: there is the classic cake with base, without base, as a tear cake with a base layer and even as a cooked version, with pre-cooked cream made from milk, sugar, butter and starch. Any cheesecake can also be refined - almost as good as your favourite muesli. Japan also has its very own cake variant: there the cheesecake usually consists only of eggs, white chocolate and cream cheese.

a cake makes history

Asia, America or Europe? The first traditional cheesecake recipe actually comes from a Greek physicist named Aigimos. The Romans probably took over the ancient preparation of the popular cake. Cheesecake as we know it today was first found at the end of the 14th century in a French cookbook called Le Viandier. In 1598 Germans started to make it. The oldest German recipe comes from a cookbook by Anna Wecker. Almost a hundred years later, the Complete Nuremberg Cookbook even contains several recipes for "Eyer-Käß-Dorten" - the Franks "widder" ... History is also written in 2019: with the first cheesecake muesli being made by mymuesli at our factory in Passau. Enjoy it!
