New York Cheesecake

This new cheesecake was created with the idea of making a cheesecake that will be loved for a long time. The simplicity of the cake, without any browning, allows for the perfect baking temperature to fully utilize the flavor of the cheese itself. The result is a New York cheesecake with a simple appearance and a deep and profound flavor that only Lutao can offer.

A large proportion of cream cheese is used to achieve a smooth and rich flavor. The cake's light texture is achieved through exquisite blending and temperature control, and by baking it slowly at low temperature, it becomes moist and its sweetness and richness melt on the tongue.

The addition of Australian cream cheese, with its richness and moderate acidity, and sour cream, with its refreshing acidity, gives the cheese a pleasant aftertaste. The graham cookie used as the base adds texture and aroma, resulting in a dish with just the right balance of richness and freshness.
