OUR STORY

Welcome to MJ's Cheesecakes, where every slice tells a story of sharing love and tradition. My journey into the world of cheesecake baking began back in 2009 when I first started selling cheesecake on RAGBRAI.  Growing up, I found solace and joy in the art of baking, starting at age 9, a skill passed down to me by my mother and hero, Helen.  As a retired professional of over 39 years, I've traded my desk job for the sweet freedom of pursuing my lifelong love of creating delicious treats.  With two grown and married children and three adorable grandchildren, I'm relishing the opportunity to spend more time with my family, cherishing every moment with them alongside my love of baking.  Baking isn't just a hobby for me--it's my passion.  From classic flavors to innovative creations, I craft over 40 varieties of cheesecake, each made fresh from scratch with love and care.  There's nothing quite like the satisfaction of seeing people savoring my creations, whether it's for weddings, birthdays, graduations, holidays or even just a casual gathering.  My favorite part?  The endless possibilities of creating new flavors that delight the taste buds and bring people together.  So, come join me on this delicious journey, where every bite is infused with love and a lifetime of baking expertise.
