Deep-Dish Cheesecakes

This Eli's Cheesecake Company Creation Takes Cues from Chicago-Style Pizza

— March 8, 2019 — Lifestyle
Eli's Cheesecake Company added to its collection of cheesecake desserts of all sizes with an all-new Deep-Dish Cheesecake, which reinvents the classic cake with a thick crust. In addition to having a crust that reminds of a Chicago-style deep-dish pizza, the cheesecake, or "dessert pizza," takes inspiration from the beloved savory dish with a deep red strawberry sauce and white chocolate to mimic the look of classic toppings like tomato sauce and shredded cheese.

While the focus of cheesecake is usually the creamy cake section of the dessert, this fun creation offers a new way to experience the dessert just by exaggerating the conventional proportions of the crust.

This sweet reinterpretation of pizza serves eight and ships across the United States from frozen.
Trend Themes
1. Thick Crust Desserts - Exploring the trend of thick-crusted desserts and baked goods may present an opportunity to reinvent conventional desserts and offer a unique experience to customers.
2. Savory-inspired Desserts - Incorporating elements of savory dishes in desserts such as a deep-dish cheesecake could create a new market for consumers who enjoy unique and playful flavors.
3. Dessert Mash-ups - Combining familiar desserts with elements from other dishes can create a buzz and interest among consumers, offering opportunities for innovation and experimentation.
Industry Implications
1. Baked Goods - The baked goods industry can explore the trend of thick-crusted desserts and savory-inspired elements to attract new customers and create a new category of products.
2. Dessert and Confectionery - The dessert industry can experiment with dessert mash-ups and unusual flavor combinations to sustain consumer interest and create excitement in the product line-up.
3. Food and Beverage - Combining sweet and savory flavors to create unusual and tasty dishes can cross the boundaries between food and beverage, especially in creating products capable of reducing the homeostasis of conventional not so gluten-free munching and mealtime, making these products universal to consumers of all age groups.
