    Crab Cheesecake
    Larry M.

    I came across this spot via a friend's recommendation. My mouth immediately salivated when I visited this establishments page!! Wow is all I could think to the sight of these cheesecakes!! Upon further examination...wait...is that crab on a cheesecake? Is that a pulled brisket cheesecake? Huh? How would THAT taste? Well good people I had to go find out for myself...and once again I'm thrilled that I did!! Located inside of White Marsh Mall at 8200 Perry Hall Blvd., White Marsh M.D., you'll find @cheesecakecafemd on the bottom floor near the only elevator in the main mall. It's a good reason that this place stands alone not too far off from the food court...this is a specialized delicacy!! The circular cheesecakes come in quite a few traditional flavors, and eyebrow raising flavors like Buffalo Chicken (pulled Buffalo chicken on top of a blend of mozzarella, cheddar, and savory cream cheese, with a rustic blend of herbs and spices on a cracker crust), and their Black & Blue (blackened and smoked pulled brisket atop a tangy creamy bleu cheese, cheesecake, paired with a savory herbed up cracker crust)!! Wow!! Sounds oddly delicious doesn't it?? IT IS!! Ok so I copped their Cookie Butter cheesecake, that had a warm cookie flavor and smooth texture. I also snatched their Strawberry Crunch cheesecake that tasted like you had enough money for the good ice cream from the ice cream truck, and their banana pudding joint that rivaled your aunties freshly made batch...not overly sweet, and full of deliciousness. Then I got their pineapple upside down cheesecake that had a CAKE on top of the cheesecake...it was sooo good!! Lastly I had to delve into that crab cheesecake. They used lump crab meat, you could taste the Old Bay, and the cheesecake itself was a blend of mozzarella and cheddar with this sauce that was out of this world. Again I'm not gassing this spot, but that crab joint needs to be on EVERYONES list to try in your lifetime...it's that serious!! This chef is on to something!! REALLY!! Mall parking is available, and the young lady that served us...phenomenal patience, and service!! GO!!! Tell them Big Schlim sent you...ENJOY...I told you so in advance!! That's

    Pineapple Upside Down Cheesecake
    Shannon A.

    After seeing that a new cafe had opened at the mall, we decided to "exercise" by mall walking and then enjoying dessert to celebrate. The pineapple upside down cheese cake was amazing. It had layers of fruit, cake, and cheesecake. I am not a huge cheesecake fan, but the other layers balanced it out and it was fantastic. In addition to desserts, they have savory cheesecake options too. I would like to try the crab one some time. Any small business that is brave enough to open during a pandemic deserves a chance... and boy am I glad I tried it! Delish!

    I happened upon this stand in the mall by accident but was soon glad that I did. Black owned & operated they offered savory flavored cheesecakes that I had never experienced offered in these particular flavor combinations, such as buffalo chicken with actual chicken, BBQ pork with cheddar with pork, black & blue with brisket and the Charm City crab cake with lump crab. They offer the sweetest versions as well such as Cinnabun, maple pancake w/ bacon, double chocolate and a few more traditional cheesecake flavors. I had a super hard time choosing, but the brain child behind these cakes Andrea has definitely thought outside of the box and brings you a one-of-kind flavor experience. The selections that went home with me were everything I thought they would be, they were AH-MAZING and I will definitely be a returning customer until I've tried almost all of her flavor combos. She also caters events. Check her out! There's a flavor combo for everyone's palate and you will not be disappointed. Get you some today!

    Lemon, Pineapple upside down and Oreo cookie cheesecakes...all sooo good!

Arrived in the afternoon during a busy weekend and decided to take out for desserts. My first visit and was underwhelmed by the service received. Rushed and transactional. Packaging was very sloppy and my napoleons were shoved to the side, making the clear clamshells very messy when I arrived home. If only the desserts were saving grace, but was left disappointed as well. As others have mentioned, the pastries do not taste fresh. The ricotta cream in the original cannoli tasted warm and gritty, the shell was stale. I noticed these were sitting out. The puff pastry in the Napoleons were soggy. The cream puffs shell was stale and chocolate topping was super sweet, unfortunately these were far from heavenly. Maybe another day, Vaccaro.

    I was excited to try this place out. The positive is that the service was very friendly. The staff…read morewent out of their way to treat us well and were so kind to our kids. The vibe inside was relaxing. We were here for a few hours enjoying our coffee, tea and desserts and it was a nice place to pass the time on a cold, freezing day. The thing that dropped the review was basically the coffee and desserts. The coffee was fine, but just your standard coffee that you'd find at any gas station. The cannoli was overly sweet and the cookies we ordered felt stale. Interestingly, they charge more for sit down desserts vs. takeout. The servers were very sweet to share that we could order takeout and not have to pay the extra fee. Finally, not sure why, but there was not a lot of heating inside the restaurant. We ate with our jackets on, which was fine. But found that to be a little odd. Nobody seemed to know why they couldn't get the heat on. When it's below freezing, it would be nice to escape the chill. Overall, it was a nice stop. My kids loved it. But it was not without some quirks.

I also prefer stuffed doughnuts (like a good Boston cream, etc) but they don't have many options for those. Instead it seems they prefer to put a dollop of the cream in the hole on top. I tried the cookies and cream and the cream cheese in the middle was odd.. it had a stretchy consistency. I like their Cinnamon Toast Crunch one, that one is probably my favorite. They're good and I love the variety but I've had better doughnuts.

There were only 2 people working, so there were a bunch of people waiting for their orders and service was slow. One person was at the cashier, the other was packing doughnuts, making breakfast sandwiches, and the coffees. We waited 5 minutes in line and then another 10-15 minutes for them to pack our 4 donuts. I wanted to get a sandwich but figured the wait was too long. On to the donuts - I liked the blueberry basil and blackberry lime donuts. The blueberry basil flavor wasn't super strong but it was well balanced. The blackberry lime was my favorite - sweet and a little tart. The crobar (croissant-donut) texture was awesome but I did not rally taste the cranberry or orange advertised. The buttercream frosting on top was sickeningly sweet so ended up scraping that off...finally the coffee donut. Not my favorite but not bad - it tasted like instant coffee and was kinda punchy coffee flavor, bitter. But I liked that the bitter offset the sweet. Overall, it's a fun place for a gourmet donut but be sure to not get here when it's too busy and to come early - they sell out of fun flavors fast!
