New York style looks the best. The other ones look all dry.

Japanese style is amazing. Its more cake than new York style, and boy is it pillowy.

No Basque Cheesecake? Fuck this list.

New York is definitely the best. Light and airy should never describe a good cheesecake imo.

Käsekuchen ist immer lecker

i only ever had (and baked a lot of times) the german style, and they are not dry at all.

from my point of view the new york style looks just sad 😅

Pretty sure the lower row is baked while the upper isn't?

There's also Basque style. I've never tried it but I'm led to believe that it is similar to NY with strong carmalization to the point where it almost looks burned on the top (it's not actually burned).

Finally, there are further regional varieties using more local cheeses (e.g. Ricotta in Italy).

The japanese one looks efficient.

I like strawberries and whip cream. kinda want to try japanese style now.

No Italian ricotta cheesecake? For shame!

I kid, but I seriously recommend people try it. Crust optional, filling is a combo of ricotta and marscapone cheese with butter and sour cream. Wonderful as-is, but even better with strawberry or raspberry sauce.

Dito for Swedish

The swedish one is a bit different:

All of them baked.

Or mascarpone cheese cake

Italian and Basque are the two best ones, followed by New York. Scandinavian is nice enough and also not listed.

In German that name means East-Poo-Poo. Sounds delicious.

How am I supposed to know what ditto is in Swedish?

They all look delicious.

Oh yeah. I forgot we Le Hate Amerikkka here. Europe good.

Agreed.

Käsekuchen is my favourite out of the three I’ve tried. It’s incredibly well balanced in flavours. It’s a shame Quark is almost completely unheard of outside German/Slavic countries.

Now i want Cheesecake

Sorry but no.
In Germany we also use Frischkäse which is cream cheese.

No color, no personality

Otherwise it would just be cheese. On dough.

I don't think any of these are no-bake cheesecake

Honestly

Part of me thinks this is a clever troll to leave it out

Fucking ewww

Is gassing Jews a personality trait?

I could never imagine thinking such a description is ew, but you be you fren

French cheese cake

many cultures, include some of those listed, have no-bake cheesecakes that are set in the fridge.

In the UK "normal" cheesecake is not baked. It is also common not to bake cheesecakes in the Netherlands. The no-bake cheesecake is actually pretty common in the US, in fact the recipe is historically on the side of most containers of Philadelphia Cream Cheese, called "icebox cheesecake" since the 1950s.

There's a bakery I like that does 'Hungarian cheesecake.' It's like the German but with chocolate chips inside. Only place that has ever made a chocolate-involved cheesecake I have ever liked.

Now I want cheesecake.

Gobble gobble

Do those ones also have gelatin in it? Gelatin-cheesecakes are quite common here in Finland

Can't believe it doesn't have a London Cheesecake. Well actually I can because not only is it not a cake but it doesn't even have cheese in it...

Its a weird little thing mostly localised to London as the name would suggest. Basically a square of puff pastry with a jam filling, icing and coconut shavings on top.

Not ideal when you want an actual cheesecake but a really simple and delicious pastry.

Cold, no-bake cheesecake, set with Gelatin are the best. These are the standard in Australia. Lemony, cheesy, sweet, dense, creamy, perfection.

Wikipedia says you can use quark or cream cheese: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Käsekuchen

Probably lots of variations from one family recipe to the next...

They misspelled Käsekuchen.

I want it so bad

🤤

Philadelphia cake does. In Germany, commonly powder for Götterspeise is used instead of plain gelatine.

Basque? That ought to be in there. Had one in Barcelona that was amazing. Tried to make one at home and it just seemed flat compared to the Spanish one.

Japanese desserts & baked items are amazing. I had fluffy pancake and it was delicious af.

Is the top burnt?

They seem to have a higher amount of fluffy variations on eats.

The Japanese one looks amazing

In my experience, Japanese baking tends to look perfect but fall very short on flavor and texture.

They also generally like things less sweet and less rich (i.e. butter, cream) than westerners and cheese is not even worth the calories.

I don't remember if German rules are the same as French, but in French you don't need to include accents when something is written in capital letters.
