Had a taste of the famous dessert chain The Cheesecake Factory in the US and got hooked? Now you can stock up on the cheesecakes without having to book a flight.

New takeaway cheesecake stall Beverly Hills Cheesecake opened today at the basement of Raffles City Shopping Centre featuring “desserts from The Cheesecake Factory Bakery”.

While Beverly Hills Cheesecake doesn’t operate under The Cheesecake Factory’s name, it ostensibly uses the more famous American company’s branding and cake photos on its social media platforms.

The cheesecakes it sells are also claimed to be from the OG Cheesecake Factory, with popular flavours offered like Classic Cheesecake, Red Velvet Cake Cheesecake, Godiva Double Chocolate Cheesecake and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cheesecake.

It’s unclear whether Beverly Hills Cheesecake is a franchised outlet or offshoot of The Cheesecake Factory.

8days.sg has reached out to its management for clarification, and was informed by a rep that they are the “master distributor” of The Cheesecake Factory’s desserts in Singapore, with plans to distribute the sweet treats to local major supermarkets like NTUC FairPrice “soon”.

When we enquired about why Beverly Hills Cheesecake is using a different name for its shop, we were told by the rep that “it’s a long story” and to call him back later for further clarification as he was currently engaged. So watch this space for updates.

The Cheesecake Factory Bakery was founded in 1972 by Evelyn Overton, an American baker who ran a small cheesecake shop in Detroit, Michigan, before moving to Los Angeles with her family to start the now-famous cheesecake empire. Her son, David, went on to open a chain of The Cheesecake Factory restaurants in Beverly Hills, where customers could sit down and enjoy their plated desserts. The restaurant chain currently has over 200 outlets worldwide in cities like Toronto, Dubai, Hong Kong and Beijing.

Did The Cheesecake Factory’s Beverly Hills roots inspire Beverly Hills Cheesecake’s name? Hmm.
