Interesting Cheesecake Trivia

- American-style cheesecake is not technically a “cake.” It’s really cheese custard with a crust.
- The first mass-produced cream cheese was developed in 1873, when William Lawrence, a New York dairyman, while looking for a way to recreate the soft, French Neufchâtel cheese, added cream to the process and accidentally invented a cheese that was heavier and creamier. It was eventually branded as Philadelphia Cream Cheese.
- The world’s largest cheesecake was created by Philadelphia Cream Cheese on September 21, 2013, in Lowville, NY, at the Lowville Cream Cheese Festival. It was 7 feet, 6.25 inches in diameter and 2 feet, 7 inches tall. It weighed in at 6,900 pounds!
