I have been baking and decorating cakes from my "home bakery" since 1997. Cheesecake Etc. began in Charlotte, NC as just cheesecakes, (thus the name) and has evolved into a custom bakery specializing in wedding cakes, groom's cakes and high end specialty cakes for anniversaries, birthdays and babies.
Cheesecake Etc. has long been known for our amazing cheesecakes. Now we are adding a new feature where you can create your own by selecting the crust, filling and toppings. Totally custom. Two sizes are available. Creme de Menthe, Dulce de Leche, Nutella, Pecans, Pineapple, Sour Cream, Strawberry, White Chocolate.
A. In NC, you may sell baked goods to the public provided you maintain certain standards. I am licensed, inspected by the NC Department of Agriculture and have a special zoning permit from Mecklenburg County. My home is pet free and smoke free. Cheesecake Etc. is incorporated and I have a valid NC State and Federal ID tax number.
We are very proud to have been voted "Best Of" NC Wedding cakes by the brides of "The Knot" magazine for thirteen straight years! This is every year the award has existed. Cheesecake Etc. has also been awarded the "Brides Choice" Award for NC wedding cakes for 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 by Weddingwire.com.

Gail made the most decadent and beautiful cheesecake for our microwedding last weekend! It was a 10-inch New York style cheesecake with gingersnap crust and a whipped cream topping. Every single guest raved about how delicious it was, and many of them took a second slice home! For true Italian baking and celebratory confections, we definitely recommend Gail's work!

Gail with Cheesecake Etc. makes the BEST cakes in not only Charlotte, but also the BEST in both the NC and SC area. She makes sure you get exactly what you want for your special day! Her cakes not only look absolutely AMAZING, but they also taste EXTREMELY DELICIOUS! Her cakes are never dry, nor do they fall apart. Whether you're looking for a stunning wedding cake or just a low-key birthday cake, go to Gail-she's every bit of WONDERFUL!!! There's a reason she's been voted #1 and has been given so many awards for talented artwork of cake making. Every cake she puts together

Gail doesn't just "bake cakes," she creates artistic masterpieces that could easily be the centerpieces not only at weddings but at a museum! Her creations are not merely culinary delights, they are practically marvels of architecture and engineering! Virtually any subject -- or object -- is not beyond her realm to replicate...and impress the most demanding bride.Oh, and they taste delicious, too...

Cheesecake Etc made our wedding cake and it was beautiful and delicious. Gail was an absolute delight to work with. She is genuinely passionate about what she does and you can see that passion in her cakes. We were not only blessed with Gail creating our own wedding cake but as vendors in the wedding industry we get to sometimes enjoy Gail's pastries/cakes at industry events. We also see many of Gail's beautiful creations at client events. It is so wonderful to hear how much others love Gail's cakes as well. She is a Charlotte treasure.

So I am having my coffee this morning, and wishing I had a cheesecake from Cheesecake Etc to go with it! I have been ordering cakes and cheesecakes from here for over ten years. It is ALWAYS fantastic! The orders are always ready when promised and always excellent! If you want to be everyone's favorite person at the next holiday party, just bring ANYTHING from this bakery! She is THE BEST!

My fiance and I decided to call Gail at Cheesecake Etc. for our wedding cake. We heard through the grapevine that she was one of the best. We had our free cake tasting with her today. If you call and set up a meeting with her, she will ask you what kinds of cake/frosting you want to try and you show up and she feeds you cake and draws you a sketch of what your creation will look like! SO GOOD and very competitively priced. Our cake is three layers that will serve up to 75 people and has fondant on one level and decorative work with buttercream on the other layers. No topper or flowers or anything
