This delicate dessert takes a long time to make yet it can fall apart in less than an hour. So you might be asking yourself: What’s the best way to travel with a cheesecake?<\/p>\n\n\n\n How to travel with a cheesecake? Get a small-sized cooler depending on the size of your cheesecake. Cool the inside of the cooler ahead of time with ice. When ready, put ice packs inside to cover the bottom of the cooler. Cover your cheesecake with plastic wrap and put it inside the cooler on top of the ice packs. Close the lid.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In the past few years, I’ve traveled with my cheesecakes to a couple of cities. Some were close, and some were far. Throughout my journey, I’ve learned a bunch of helpful tips that I know for sure will get your cheesecake to its destination safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I learned the hard way that traveling with cheesecake is NOT <\/strong>an easy task. It was very disturbing to see my cheesecake melt and fall apart when I arrived at my destination.<\/strong> As a person who has to travel to see my family, I always want to treat them to this fluffy dessert that I create.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you\u2019re looking to bake different-sized cheesecakes, I found the perfect\u00a03 piece set of Springform Pans<\/strong>\u00a0that I recently got for myself!\u00a0This 3-piece set comes with 4, 7, and 9-inch Nonstick Springform Pans,<\/a><\/strong> which you can check out on Amazon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Best way to travel with cheesecake:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before beginning to make your cheesecake you need to consider how far you’ll need to drive.<\/strong> This will allow you to prepare what you need ahead of time so that you can still arrive with a beautiful dessert. If your drive is estimated to be anywhere between 30 minutes to 2 hours long<\/strong>, this method should work great for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Look for a small or large cooler to use. The cooler’s size depends on what size cheesecake you’re planning on making.<\/strong> I recommend getting a cooler that can fit your cheesecake perfectly. This is because the smaller the cooler, the longer it will stay cool. Preferably, the cooler also has to be easy to carry with two handles on both sides so that you can carry it upright. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Put some ice in the cooler to cool it ahead of time. This allows the cooler to get cold in the meantime. (I would recommend leaving your cheesecake in the Spring Form Pan that you baked it in for proper transport). <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n When ready, spill all the ice out and put enough fresh ice packs to cover the bottom of the cooler. Take your cheesecake out of the fridge and GENTLY cover it with plastic wrap.<\/strong> Place it on top of the ice packs inside the cooler and close the lid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n After arriving at your destination and taking the cheesecake out of its pan, you might not know the proper way of cutting this cheesecake.<\/strong> Check out my article where I spoke in-depth about The Proper Ways of Cutting a Cheesecake<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cheesecake is a type of cake that can be made in many different ways<\/strong>. In my opinion, it truly stands out from most other cakes. This makes this cake very unpredictable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Depending on how you make it, the cheesecake can have many different types of crust. It can also have many different types of toppings ranging from fruit and nuts all the way to even vegetables. The consistency of the cheesecake is no different. It can be firm, strong, and stable or it can be made with looser jello-like consistency making it very gentle.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This leads us to talk about the “freezing your cheesecake” method. This technique of freezing a cheesecake ahead of time has several different reasons to be used: <\/p>\n\n\n\nPut Your Cheesecake In A Cooler With Ice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
