My favourite goto shop if I want to treat myself. I love the basque burnt Cheesecake. Reminds me of my childhood. My mother and grandmother baked it like that. The owner is very friendly and even when it’s busy up for a quick small talk.

BEST BURNT BASQUE CHEESCAKE

unnamed 936x615x0x0x936x615x1626067757 - Blog

If you’ve ever been to Spain’s San Sebastian, you’ll know it’s pretty much a perfect city. Located in Basque Country (there’s your first clue), not only is this coastal city famous for its stunning beaches, honestly—some to even rival Australia—but it’s also a beloved foodie destination, making it an absolute bucket list travel destination for anyone with, well, an appetite for the best damn seafood in the world.

From tapas-style eating known as pintxos, a heap of Michelin star restaurants and fresh produce markets, it doesn’t take a genius to realise that a trip around San Sebastian is a dedicated food safari. On top of this, the seaside haven is home to a 60-year-old restaurant called La Viña which just so happens to be the home of the tastiest burnt Basque cheesecake (or, “tarta de queso”) ever. It’s so good, people literally fly in just to grab a slice.

Made with butter, heavy cream, cream cheese, eggs, sugar, and vanilla, this easy-to-make but hard-to-master cheesecake is what your wildest cake dreams are made of. And while we may not be able to jump on a plate and hit the white sands of San Sebastian any time soon, you can find a few authentic recreations right here in Sydney. 

Here’s where to find Sydney’s best burnt Basque cheesecake.

Jiggle Cheesecake

CARLINGFORD

It goes without saying that a shop that specialises in the holy sweet treat that is cheesecake should absolutely have burnt Basque cheesecake on the menu, right? Exactly. Jiggle Cheesecake is goldmine of the famous Japanese “jiggle” cheesecakes with a rainbow of flavours including matcha and chocolate cakes. However, when you’ve got a hankering for the golden burnt goods, the burnt Basque cheesecake here is, simply put, delicious..

Moist and packed with rich cheesy goodness, this crustless cloud of deliciousness gets baked at extreme temperatures to deliver a delicate caramelised coat. Underneath this, you’ll find the silky, smooth baked cheesecake texture you love, and hey, it’s not unheard of for people to finish a whole one of these cheesecakes on their own. These cakes are available for delivery and come in two sizes, six, and eight inch-wide cakes.

Another interesting one is the Basque Burnt cheesecake. This is a variety not widely available elsewhere and it’s a bit denser in texture and is based on the traditional cheesecakes of Northern Spain and the Basque region. They do have a dark caramelised crust – hence the name. We’ve actually had the pleasure of eating this style of cheesecake in San Sebastian in Northern Spain at the place rated the best in the world. We were so excited to finally find this variety here in Sydney and it really does have the true traditional flavours which are amazing in a marginally lighter texture version of the original. It was so good and brought back wonderful memories of our travels.

There is a good variety of drinks to choose from too. Refreshing tea drinks or you can go with a delicious Soy drink which are made daily freshly on the premises. They triple filter the soy beans and this makes for a really flavoursome smooth drink.

Mlady went with a Soy milk drink with pearls and tea. The pearls are Tapioca pearls (Boba) and are soft chewy spheres. They add an interesting and unique dimension to the drink.

Sir had a Soy milk drink with brown sugar and no pearls. Although it had added brown sugar it certainly wasn’t sickly. The subtle sweetness simply added flavour to the drink.

The tofu with pearls and syrup is a must. This had a lovely subtle sweetness- not at all sickly. The tofu simply glides down when eating it. It is so soft and combined with the soft chewy spheres (the pearls) and that lovely syrup, it really was hard to stop eating this! If you haven’t tried this before you’re missing out.

And lets not forget the smaller bites here too. The tasty and very popular egg tarts and yummy coconut tarts are constantly coming out of the ovens here and constantly being bought almost as fast. They have to keep these beauties churning out all the time just to keep up with demand. The short crust pastry created a lovely crunchy base.
