What it is

Cheesecake filling is a sweet, creamy mixture that forms the base of cheesecakes. It is typically made by blending cream cheese with sugar, eggs, and flavorings like vanilla or fruit. The mixture is then baked until set.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use cheesecake filling to provide a rich, tangy flavor and smooth texture in desserts. It is most commonly found in cheesecakes, but also appears in cupcakes, pastries, and other baked goods.

Health notes

Cheesecake filling is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of calories, fat, and sugar. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated many of the individual ingredients commonly found in cheesecake filling. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

Cheesecake filling contains dairy (milk) and eggs, which are two of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten unless wheat flour is added.
