No other dessert can compare to the beauty of a perfect cheesecake with its crumbly, buttery crust and creamy filling. It’s hard to resist going for seconds, and even thirds, once you’ve tasted it. So whether you’re craving something light and fruity or decadent and covered in chocolate, there’s a cheesecake that will satisfy your sweet tooth. Here are some of the best places in Cairo to find a cheesecake like no other. 

Cheescakemania 

Nobody does cheesecake better than Cheescakemania; it’s in the name, after all. New Cairo residents have been blessed with this shop that specialises in nothing but cheesecake, and it’s made its way to the Open Air Mall in Madinaty. They’ve got every flavour you can imagine, from Cherry, and Lemon to Cinnamon Roll. and Milk Chocolate. Nothing can beat their classic New York style with a heavenly creamy texture. 

Ralph’s German Bakery 

Known for its delicious fresh pastries and baked goods, Ralph’s German Bakery also makes a mean cheesecake. If you haven’t tried it yet, then you’re missing out. Their blueberry cheesecake is packed with juicy berries and has a light, smooth texture that will leave you wanting more. Ralph’s has locations in Sheikh Zayed, Maadi, and New Cairo.  

Cake Cafe 

This cafe never disappoints when it’s time for dessert. Once you walk in, you’re greeted by the smell of freshly baked cakes. With endless options, it can be hard to decide. So next time you visit one of their several branches across Cairo, try their mouth-watering cheesecake, which comes in flavours like Oreo, Lotus, and Brownie.  

Keki

It’s jiggly, light, and fluffy. Japanese cheesecake is a twist on your favourite dessert that’s lighter in texture and less sweet than your traditional American cheesecakes.

Their famous cheesecake comes in three different flavours: Original, Chocolate, and Coffee. 

Cheesecake by Kez

Kez is the man when it comes to a delicious cheesecake. You can order his handmade San Sebastian cheesecakes with a burnt exterior and perfectly creamy interior for your next occasion (or to eat all by yourself). Right now, Kez is serving up the people of Sahel, but he’ll be back to making deliveries in Cairo on September 4th.  

Ovio

You may have seen Ovio’s signature San Sebastian cheesecake covered in delicious Belgian chocolate online, but you need to experience the magic for yourself. Rich, smooth, and creamy, it’s a must-get when you eat at Ovio.
