This cheesecake may be mini in size, but it sure is mighty in flavor and features a delicious graham cracker crust. This creamy, sweet-tart confection is packed with bright lemon for a tangy and all around divine dessert. When you’re ready to dig in, all you have to do is let it come to room temperature. Sayonara, springform pans and fussy water baths! (Psst—personal-size means you don’t have to share.) Nutrition values are representative of a 1 cake serving.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Review summary

Updated on Dec 2025
  • Flavor: Many enjoyed the lemon taste, though some wanted more tartness; a few found it artificial or bland.
  • Ease of prep: Ready to eat straight from the fridge; some appreciated the convenience of individual portions.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding fruit toppings like raspberries or strawberries for extra flavor and freshness.
  • Texture: Some loved the creamy consistency, while others found it grainy or rubbery with unexpected lemon zest bits.
  • Crust: Several noted the crust was soggy or lacking; a crunchier, thicker base might improve the experience.

The flavors were so yum! Usually don't care for already prepared desserts but this lemon cheesecake was so yummy and you can taste the lemon. Super moist and ready to eat. Keep it refrigerated. If you don't care for it being cold heat it up for a few seconds, like 6 seconds because if not it will melt.

Great, balanced flavor; Bright, true lemon flavor (with delightful surprises of lemon remnants) perfectly complement the traditional decadence texture that cheesecake is known for.

The light lemony flavor paired with the rich texture of the cheesecake made for a delectable bite.

These cheesecakes are very creamy and not over flavored with the lemon. Perfect amount of crust to cake. Delicious!

Can there ever be anything wrong with lemon cheesecake?! Nice sharp tanginess. Just enough for a semi-decadent treat.

Nice that you don't have to cook it. Crushed it up in a bowl with some Greek yogurt. Lemon flavor was pretty light.

The flavor of lemon was on point it definitely tasted like real lemon and not artificial at all but the lemon bits in the cheesecake was not my cup of tea.

A bit sweet for my liking. Loved the lemon flavor, a little more tart would be ideal.
