Light as a cloud, incredibly soft and delicately creamy—Japanese soufflé cheesecake has become our signature bake and the product that put PieCraft on the map. Now it’s your turn to discover the techniques behind this beautiful dessert.

In this hands-on workshop, we’ll guide you through every step of the process. You’ll learn how to prepare the silky batter, master the delicate folding technique that gives the cheesecake its famous airy texture, and bake it gently in a water bath for that perfectly light, jiggly finish.

Once you’ve mastered the classic recipe, we’ll also show you how to transform it into exciting flavour variations, including rich Chocolate and vibrant Matcha, so you can confidently experiment at home.

Whether you’re an experienced baker or trying something new, this workshop is designed to be approachable, relaxed and full of practical tips you’ll use again and again.
