Girls’ Day Out: Best Dessert Stop for You and Your Crew
Which One Should You Try?
When it comes to iconic desserts, cheesecake sits high on the list. But not all cheesecakes are created equal. Enter the Burnt Top Japanese Cheesecake—a fluffy yet caramelized twist on traditional soufflé cheesecake—and its decadent rival: the Cheesecake Factory’s classic New York-style cheesecake.
If you’re in Jersey City, you can try the Japanese version at Fluffy Fluffy Go, known for their viral soufflé cheesecakes (and occasionally a special burnt top version—check their menu or @fluffyfluffy.go).
1. What Is Burnt Top Japanese Cheesecake?
Burnt top Japanese cheesecake combines the airiness of a Japanese soufflé with the caramelized top of a Basque-style cheesecake. The result? A dessert that’s soft, fluffy, and slightly crisp on top, with a toasted aroma and delicate sweetness.
Fluffy Fluffy Go sometimes features this specialty item, made fresh in small batches. It’s light, jiggly, and layered with flavor.
2. What Makes Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake Different?
The Cheesecake Factory is famous for its dense, ultra-creamy, and sweet cheesecakes, served in enormous slices and packed with flavor. Their classic New York-style cheesecake is made with heavy cream cheese, eggs, and sour cream, often topped with whipped cream or rich sauces.
Their menu offers over 30 cheesecake flavors—explore them at cheesecakefactory.com or on Instagram @cheesecakefactory.
