Seasonal Strawberries perfect for cheesecakes

I’m a massive believer in eating seasonal food, you know at the precise time we are supposed to eat that thing, whether it be fruit or veg! Interestingly it’s also when, more often, those products are at the lowest price

I believe English strawberries encapsulate the British summer time. It also reminds me very much of Wimbledon and strawberry everything

So here’s the perfect strawberry summer dessert!

Strawberry Cheesecake - No Bake (3)

First things first:

So what’s the difference between a baked and a no-bake cheesecake?

Well both are delicious, but they are totally different. The texture is the main point of differance

What makes the different is that there arenoeggsin a no-bake cheesecakeand ano-bake cheesecake“sets” by chillingin thefridge.

A baked Cheesecake on the other hand contains eggsin therecipe. The Cheesecake is then baked in awater bath, then it chillsin thefridge.

No gelatine required for this No Bake Easy Strawberry Cheesecake

I believe that one of the best things with this recipe is there is no need at all to use gelatine (which also helps the vegetarians too)

You can of course include gelatine but the set would be much former and really who can be bothered with all that dissolving stuff and wondering if you cheesecake will be like rubber

Just make sure you whip the cream cheese mix until it’s very thick and leave it in the fridge over night and then you will have the perfect set cheesecake

How to make this No Bake Strawberry Cheesecake Recipe

Firstly you don’t even need to turn the oven on!

I make this cheesecake look super special by placing halved strawberries around the edge of the tin – look how pretty the final result is 🙂 I

MPRESSIVE (whispers – but oh so easy)

The most perfect thing about this is not only is it stunning to look at, delicious to eat, BUT you can make it the day before and actually 48 hours before if you like.

Make sure your filling is very thick, remember there is NO GELATINE in this recipe

As this strawberry cheesecake recipe is ‘get ahead’ all the fuss is out the way the day before and you can enjoy the pudding with your family and friends, rather that chasing around the kitchen

English Strawberries for your Cheesecake

I love to make this at the height of English Strawberry season – June. I find English strawberries sweet and perfect and it’s even better when I’ve picked them myself.

Or why not take the kids strawberry picking, they love it

Other Flavour Cheesecakes – will this recipe work with raspberries?

Yes yes yes – simply swap out the strawberries for raspberries – that’s it!

Or make it strawberry and add other summer fruits to the top or inside – you really can do anything you like

And why not try try grating lemon zest in the filling and popping a layer of lemon curd in the middle to make a zingy lemon cheesecake too!

(whispers – I have a great new idea for an Oreo Cheesecake – so watch out for that)

Other Strawberry Desserts

I have a few other strawberry Desserts too

My Danish Strawberry Tart is delicious – it contains marzipan and custard – go have a gander

We also have a which is also delicious – especially if you love white chocolate

So have a lovely Strawberry summer!
