The cheesecake and the doorstep delivery

As you know from recent posts I'd made the salted caramel cheesecake … there's only one problem when you've “road-tested” a dessert that has a limited lifespan you need to give it away, consequently my deliveries increased!

The doorstep delivery began and I realised quickly that the best feedback comes from random taste testing.

I posted the comments after delivery of the first two slices - here's what happened with the rest :

a slice each to my friends who'd had a package

as a gift. One friend couldn't indulge but her husband could …


the next day – I didn't tell him he'd got cheesecake

  • he has a smile on his face and uttered “mmm mmmm mmmmm”.

  • Thank you x


I collected my meat order from the butcher and on my

way home popped in to say good morning to the other recipient …


that was the best cheesecake I've ever tasted”


another slice to my best friend and running buddy when

I delivered her Christmas package – I knew she'd share

the cheesecake with her daughter …


message received later that day – “absolutely

scrumptious”


later that week, on a run – the cheesecake was

mentioned again - “your best dessert ever”

My intention was to make people smile and I think I did.

I have a feeling that the cheesecake will be back – it would be a great addition to a summer gathering – hopefully we'll be able to celebrate by then!

Next … a Christmas gift
