Baking Gourmet Cheesecakes a Family Tradition |
Triple Chocolate Cheesecake & Amaretto Cheesecake
Like many great recipes, those from Jonathan Lord Cheesecake were born in a family kitchen. Two sisters from Long Island, New York, Carole Kentrup & Kathy Dancik, use cherished recipes refined over the years by three generations of family bakers.
Using the purest ingredients remains a family tradition and they still prepare the same gourmet cheesecake so proudly served at the family’s own holiday table. As the New York Times noted, “It…won the Best of Show award at the Taste of Long Island event...700 diners consumed almost 1,000 slices and voted it the outstanding single dish."
Mrs. Kentrup says she and her sister "just liked making" the cheesecake. Their customers certainly enjoy eating their creations. It's the same cheesecake served at over 150 Long Island restaurants. Many luxury restaurants think so highly of the cake that they claim it as their own.
Jonathan Lord Cheesecake is velvety smooth, rich, creamy and clean to the palate. People who have sampled this elegant dessert agree it's the best cheesecake they have ever tasted. Some claim it's the best "anything" they have ever tasted!
New York Classic Cheesecake
In 1988, the family’s cheesecake was sold under the Jonathan Lord name for the first time. The name sprang from the family's Christian beliefs. The name also explains the company slogan, "A Taste of Heaven on Earth." The bakery has been certified as kosher, and a rabbi inspects it weekly.
