Basque Burnt Cheesecake – Tarta de Queso Cremosa
Crafted in Noia (Galicia, Spain) by Dubraseda S.L. under the D’CASA brand, this authentic Baked Creamy Basque Burnt Cheesecake (Tarta de Queso Cremosa) captures the hallmark deeply caramelized exterior and rich, molten-custard core prized across Michelin-starred European establishments.
Oven-baked using a high-concentration 44% Spanish cheese blend, pasteurized liquid egg, cream, and buttermilk, this deep-frozen 1.5 kg centerpiece provides upscale dining operations, caterers, and luxury food halls with a traditional Iberian dessert that eliminates in-house baking overhead.
The mmmediterranean Difference
Unlike dense, heavy American-style cheesecakes built on graham crusts and artificial thickeners, our Galician Tarta de Queso relies on a precise 44% cultured cheese formulation balanced with buttermilk and pure cream. Baked at high thermal intensity in individual aluminum molds, the top layer naturally caramelizes to yield subtle notes of toasted sugar and dulce de leche, framing an oozing, semi-liquid center. Direct-imported from Spain’s Atlantic coast, mmmediterranean preserves the structural stability and creamy viscosity of this Basque classic through immediate post-bake deep-freezing at -18°C.
Operational Impact
-
Operational Efficiency: Fully baked and ready to defrost. Removes hours of temperamental water-bath baking, springform prep, cooling cycles, and skilled pastry chef labor.
-
Economic Predictability: The substantial 1500g net weight provides predictable portion control (10–12 generous plated slices per cake), locking in fixed dessert food costs and preventing structural cracking or trim loss.
-
Culinary Authority: Authentic Galician provenance and clean European labeling meet stringent operator standards, delivering genuine Spanish heritage directly to the plate.
Preparation & Storage
-
Refrigerated Thaw: Remove the cake from its protective box and aluminum tray. Defrost under refrigeration between 0°C and 4°C. Once thawed, store refrigerated and consume within 5 days. Do not refreeze after thawing.
-
Service Tempering: Slice while cold using a hot, wet knife, then allow individual portions to sit at room temperature for 15–20 minutes prior to service to maximize the molten, luscious flow of the center.
-
Plating Suggestion: Serve unadorned in traditional Basque style, or finish with a pinch of flaked sea salt, a drizzle of single-estate Spanish EVOO, or fresh seasonal berries.
