(Last updated June 30 2025)
1. Overview
Our cheesecakes are handmade in small batches, and shipped with gel packs and dry ice to protect quality. Because they contain no added sugar and no preservatives, maintaining the cold chain is essential. By placing an order, you acknowledge and accept the terms below.
