LOOK: Crinkle crust meets burnt basque cheesecake, fresh strawberries
Your favorite moist, fudgey cookie is the crust of Cavite-based Algo Bueno's burnt basque cheesecake – with huge strawberries on top!

We’ve seen burnt basque cheesecakes with a brownie crust or served with pearls, but how about one made with a fudgey crinkle crust?

Cavite-based bakery Algo Bueno – which means “something good” in Spanish – serves a premium version of the popular dessert called the Fresa Burnt Basque Cheesecake (P1,499), an 8″ cake with a crinkle crust, a tangy cheesecake base, strawberry jam, and fresh strawberries on top.

And “premium” is right, because Algo Bueno’s home-baked cheesecake in itself is a high-quality basque, especially if you like yours dense, compact, creamy, and tangy like a classic New York cheesecake.

But what brings on the sweetness is the moist, crumbly, chocolatey crinkle crust at the bottom. It’s thin enough that it doesn’t overpower the cheesecake, but it’s decadent enough that it would make a good cookie on its own!

The cake is finished off with a freshly-made strawberry glaze on top for a zing of sugary tartness and jumbo strawberries that are fresh and juicy. Algo Bueno definitely didn’t scrimp on the ingredients – the cake is generously topped with the fruit, allowing each slice around 3-4 strawberries.

Algo Bueno may be based in Dasmarinas, Cavite, but they can cater to Metro Manila deliveries. Just message them on their Instagram page for orders or text them at 09155853545. – Rappler.com
