Make Your Summer Gatherings More Memorable with These Sweet Treats

Maddalena’s Cheesecake & Catering

At Maddalena's Cheesecake, we thoroughly savor each season that our region provides, but there is something so special about summer. Graduations, July 4th, barbecues, festivals, family reunions, and company picnics are just some of the gatherings that our cheesecakes and other specialty desserts help to make more memorable. Here are some of our most popular sweet treats to enjoy:

Chookies


Our cheesecake cookies, which we call chookies, are ideal for summer celebrations. We perfectly pipe our original cheesecake recipe between two chocolate chip graham-style cookies to create this specialty dessert. Also, when frozen, you can enjoy this sweet treat just like an ice cream sandwich. By the way, this dessert of ours became world-famous after being featured on the Food Network's Great American Food Finds.

Cheesecake on a Stick

From birthday celebrations to graduation parties, our cheesecake on a stick helps to make special occasions extra festive and fun. We sell a DIY kit at our storefront market that includes the supplies needed to make this delicious dessert. We can even custom blend sprinkle mixes to match school colors. It is definitely a fun activity for all ages!


Apple Crumb Pie

Want to offer a delicious dessert during backyard barbecues this summer? If so, our award-winning apple crumb pie is a crowd-pleaser. Each pie is perfectly layered with Granny Smith apples and topped with a sweet, buttery crumb that adds extra flavor and texture to this delicious dessert. When we take our dessert truck on the road, we make an apple pie à la mode (see recipe below) with our apple crumb pie. Yes, this decadent dessert is an all-time favorite during festivals, corporate gatherings, and private events.


Berry-Topped Cheesecakes

Nothing screams summer like fresh, local berries. From blueberries to raspberries, Janet is always busy decorating our cheesecakes with these seasonal fruits that perfectly add a pop of color, flavor, and texture to our creamy desserts. These custom cakes are usually requested for summer weddings and other special occasions. 

As you can see, there are quite a few ways that we can add a layer of fun and flavor to your summer events to make them more memorable. Just a reminder that our dessert truck is a sweet addition to larger gatherings. Please visit our website for more details on the different packages that we offer.


Maddalena's Apple Pie à la Mode


To start, you will need our apple crumb pie, your favorite vanilla ice cream, and a decadent caramel sauce. When you are ready to serve, warm up our apple crumb pie and line up small bowls. From there, place a scoop of vanilla ice cream in each dish, then a serving of our apple crumb pie overtop. Finish this sweet masterpiece with a caramel drizzle and strawberry accent.
