July 30th, 2025 is National Cheesecake Day

Did you know that cheesecake technically is not a cake at all? It's a tart, or open-topped pie. Topped with chocolate or berry sauce, it is ubiquitous on most restaurants' dessert menus.
And then there's your choice of baked or unbaked cheesecakes. Sweet or savory, even. See how many varieties of cheesecake CDK has to offer and try your hand at making your own! They're not difficult, really. And they're oh-so-good!
