I had wanted to make this Cheesecake a few weeks ago, but decided to make my OVER THE TOP ITALIAN CREAM CHEESE CAKE INSTEAD TO PLEASE MY HUSBAND since he had been waiting since October. I had worked out the details in my head, and was pretty sure it would work. I just love the flavor, I had a small sample after I took the last...

This cheesecake is not worth the effort. It's too sweet, too rich, and too expensive.

I don't know what went wrong, but my cheesecake was a complete disaster. The crust was burnt, and the filling was curdled.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cheesecake didn't turn out right. The crust was too hard, and the filling was too runny.

This cheesecake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but other than that it was very good. The crust was nice and flaky, and the filling was creamy and smooth.

I love this cheesecake! It's so easy to make and always turns out perfect. The pink champagne flavor is my favorite, but I've also made it with other flavors, like raspberry and lemon.
