Handcrafted Desserts & Sweet Memories Since 1991 — The Cheesecake Shop Christchurch

A Legacy of Sweetness

The Cheesecake Shop opened its doors in 1991 with a simple mission: to help communities create sweet memories. Over three decades later, that mission guides every dessert baked at their Edgeware location in Christchurch. Today, they operate over 250 bakeries across Australia and New Zealand, each one rooted in the same commitment to quality and community.

Happiness Baked Here

At their core is a dedication to handcrafted excellence. Every cake, cheesecake, and dessert is baked fresh in-store using only premium ingredients sourced from trusted suppliers. Their skilled local bakers and talented decorators work with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that whether you're buying a classic treat or a custom creation, you're getting something truly special.

Since November 2023, the Edgeware store features an open kitchen design that lets you watch the bakers and decorators work their magic. You'll see the care that goes into each creation — from mixing and baking to intricate decoration — making it clear why their desserts taste like they're made with love.

Signature Desserts

Their cheesecakes are legendary. The Classic Cheesecake has been winning hearts since 1991, while the Creamy Caramel Cheesecake offers a rich, indulgent twist. For chocolate lovers, the Belgian Marble Mudcake is a dense, fudgy masterpiece. And if you have something specific in mind — a wedding cake, birthday creation, or custom design — their bakers will bring it to life with personalised touches.
