Lemon Cheesecake

A Lemon Cheesecake is a delightful, palate-pleasing dessert that perfectly marries the tangy freshness of lemons with the creamy richness of cheesecake.

Perfect for serving at a dinner party or enjoying a slice on a sunny afternoon, Lemon Cheesecake is both versatile and delicious. That zesty citrus note not only adds to the overall flavor profile but also cuts through the richness, making every bite as enjoyable as the last.

Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Lemon Cheesecake expire?
Unopened and kept refrigerated, lemon cheesecake from a grocery store can typically last 5-7 days past the printed date on its packaging. It's very important to note this is not an expiration date, but a sell by or best by date. Once opened and assuming it's continuously kept refrigerated, a lemon cheesecake can last around 5 days. A homemade lemon cheesecake should ideally be consumed within 2-3 days of being refrigerated post-making. Freezing is an option for this dessert if you wish to keep it longer. A frozen lemon cheesecake can last up to 6-8 months in the freezer if properly wrapped and stowed away.
How do you tell if Lemon Cheesecake is bad?
You can usually tell if a cheesecake has perished by noticing any foul odors or a sour taste. Visible mold growth is an obvious sign that the cheesecake has gone off. A dry or crumbly texture is also not a good sign. It's always better to err on the side of caution when doubt exists.
Tips for storing Lemon Cheesecake to extend shelf life
• Always keep the lemon cheesecake refrigerated. • When storing in the fridge, keep it well covered to prevent it from drying out and absorbing other fridge odors. • If freezing, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then in aluminum foil to prevent freezer burn. • When ready to consume a frozen piece, defrost it overnight in the fridge for the best texture and flavor. • Slice the cheesecake only when you are ready to serve. A whole cake retains moisture better than slices.
