We have been stopping by the cheesecake lady since she opened for an occasional treat and are never disappointed. This was the first time placing a custom order and we couldnt have been happier! She made our daughters 1st birthday cake with a completely sugar free smash cake to match! It turned out adorable and was exactly what we wanted. The cake was delicious! We will definitely order again for the next big birthday!

I had recently purchased a cheesecake from The Cheesecake Lady in Wood River, IL for a birthday party for my dog. It was absolutely the best cheesecake I have ever had in my life. I would highly recommend going to her for all your sweet treats. She was very kind to even give my dog a little cheesecake!

1 of the best Cheesecakes I’ve had today. Bought and oreo and lime cakes. Then a regular NY cheese cake. Got some oreo cookies. The 1 lady that helped me was very friendly and great knowledge on what they have. She was amazing help. We will definitely go back there.

I needed a last minute cheesecake for a birthday and The Cheesecake Lady guided me through selecting the best flavor for the birthday girl, then whipped up this BEAUTIFUL masterpiece of a cheesecake. The taste and texture of the cake is beyond the beauty. Highly, highly recommend!!

So, I’d been reading/hearing about this place for quite some time, and was finally able to stop in. It did NOT disappoint. The inside is a bit small, and there is no where to sit, but that is the only “negative”. And it’s not even a negative. The woman working the counter was possibly the most friendly person I’ve ever encountered at a place of business. Even if the food was terrible (it’s not), I would go back just because of her. She’s passionate about what she does, and it shows. But we all come here for cheesecake, and, oh baby, was it delicious. My crew got a decent variety and no one was complaining. We also tried the cannoli, and, IMHO, they stole the show. The turtle cheesecake was superb, but that cannoli…… There also Oreo Bites (probably got the name wrong), and they were amazing too. If you’ve nit been here, go. You’ll be supporting a small business, eating amazing cheesecake and cannolis and dealing with the friendliest staff known to mankind.

We chose The Cheesecake Lady for our New Year’s Eve wedding, aiming for a small cake for us and cheesecake bites for guests. The Cheesecake Lady not only met but surpassed our expectations. Everything was phenomenal, with guests praising the delicious cheesecake and cake. Highly recommend for any special event, and stopping by her shop for a slice is a delightful experience too.

If you are in need of desserts for an event this is your first and last stop! She catered the dessert buffet at my wedding on the 27 and everything was phenomenal! We over ordered in hopes of having some left overs but the desserts were so good our guest devoured all the extras! I could not recommend them enough as not only are the cakes, cookies, brownies, etc all top of the line the process of catering to a venue was flawless! I can not recommend this bakery enough!

The desserts are always amazing, the shop is cute and cozy, and the owner is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. I stop in every few weeks and have made a couple special orders and TCL has never disappointed.

Amazing cheese cake. 10/10 I would recommend the gooey butter cake as well it is amazing. Genuinely better than any I’ve had. More gooey than cake part and I really enjoyed that.

Deb, the owner of “The Cheesecake Lady”, did a phenomenal job creating the cake for our reception this past Saturday. We got several compliments from guests on her creativity with our cake, and everyone got super excited when they found out it was cheesecake. 🙂 She even set up the cake at our reception herself to make sure nothing happened to the cake between leaving her kitchen and making it to the table.

I know there will be some naysayers who point out that my name is misspelled in the photo I post. To clarify – my husband and I did most of our communication over phone calls, so I think if it’s especially important to you, you can send her details over text or meet with her in person and write things out. She is very approachable, so that’s a non-issue. We even thought it was funny, because the first time we met, he mispronounced my name.

SHORT SUMMARY: Cheesecake is delicious and these cakes are gorgeous, so if you’re going for taste and appearance, “The Cheesecake Lady” is the way to go. Thank you so much, Deb!
