It is said that in ancient times, Cheesecake was a very popular dish in ancient Greece. the earliest mention of cheesecake was in the 5th century BCE, by a Greek physician named Aegimus who wrote a book on the art of making cheesecakes. During these times the cheese cake was made using simple ingredients such as ricotta cheese, wheat, and honey.

Later the Romans acquired this cheesecake recipe and created a more modern cheesecake that included more ingredients, cream, and eggs, Later on, this recipe became famous throughout Europe.

However, the cheesecake with which we are familiar in today’s time is an American innovation, which was accidentally made by William Lawrence (a dairyman in New York) while he was searching for ways to recreate the soft, French cheese Neufchatel.
