Where Did the First Cheesecakes Originate From?

Did you know that small cheesecake were served to athletes during the very first Olympic games held in 776 B.C.? The oldest written cheesecake recipe is written by writer Athenaeus and dates back to 230 AD.

Physical anthropologists dug up cheese molds which were dated circa 2,000 B.C. Cheese and cheese products have likely been around for thousands of years before this. But earlier than this goes into prehistory (before the invention of writing) so we will never really know. Greek brides and grooms were also known to use cheesecake as a wedding cake. The simple ingredients of flour, wheat, honey, and cheese were formed into a cake and baked. This is a far cry from the more complicated recipes available today! I wonder how they tasted? Must be good enough to be served as a wedding cake or an Olympian dessert.

Cheesecake in America Wasn’t Invented Until the Late 1800s

William Lawrence, a New York dairyman accidentally invented cream cheese in 1872. He was while trying to recreate a soft French cheese called Neufchatel. New York-style cheesecake, with cream cheese and egg yolks, was later created in the 1900s. The creation was invented by German immigrant Arnold Reuben.

There are other styles of cheesecake besides “New York.”

There’s Pennsylvanian, Philadelphian, Farmer’s, country, and Chicagoan. Then you have Asian, Australian, German, Italian, Dutch, Greek, Brazilian, and Colombian. There are dozens more, and they all sound pretty incredible. For now, if you are in need of some delicious mini cheesecakes this recipe will hit the spot. Take it to your next gathering, you will be a hit.
