Not lying—after the first bite, I knew this was not only the best cheesecake I've ever had but also the best sweet treat I've ever tasted. I'm so happy I found this place and can't wait to try other flavors! Thank you, Korean Momma!

We preordered the OG Burnt; it was so delicious. The cake is not too sweet, and the different textures make it a feast for the palate. Can't wait to try the other flavors.

We ordered the Panama Coffee, and it was DELICIOUS. I've never had anything quite like it. Truly incredible flavor, texture and balance of sweetness and coffee-based depth. Will definitely be planning to order again, especially when it supports a local business deeply integrated with the community!

First time trying OG basque cheesecake and it was everything I dreamed of. A smooth melty interior and delicious caramel flavor. The graham crust has a great browned butter flavor as well.
Incredible cheesecake made by an incredible person! We got the OG burnt and a sample of the black tea and honey and they were legit the best cheesecakes I've ever had. Chatting with Duly was such a nice experience too! Definitely getting more soon!

First time having a basque cheesecake...It was amazing! One of the best desserts I ever had. Original was delicious but would also recommend the black tea honey!
Pro: you'll know for sure what the best cheesecake you've ever had was. Con: all future cheesecakes that aren't Korean Momma will not measure up. Do yourself a favor and order one!

Tried the OG at first and was surprised at the saltiness of it. Had to make sure it wasn't the sea salt shaker flavor. After learning that some of the flavors weren't salty, I gave it another chance with the hojicha and it was excellent! Could finally see why everyone has been raving about these. Looking forward to trying some of the fruit flavors!
Best cheesecake in the world. Simply delicious!

Hands down best cheesecake I’ve ever tasted (OG Burnt). As others have mentioned, Duly is a master and has perfected not only texture and flavor but customer service as well. I made a mistake and didn’t fully submit my order for my husband’s birthday celebration.I reached out the day before pick-up, and Duly went above and beyond to accommodate the last-minute order. You’d be crazy not to try one. Also sampled black tea honey which was also scrumptious! Will be back for more as soon as I can rationalize devouring a cheesecake in one sitting.

One of the best basque cheesecakes I have had. Got the sea salt shaker, which was delightfully creamy in the center and tasted exactly like the drink from Cicada. The owner is also super kind in sharing samples and updates on what might be next. Looking forward to trying other flavors :)

The best cheesecake in the GBA.Came upon this place while looking for new bakeries in Cambridge a few weeks ago. After reading a couple of rave reviews about their cakes, I decided to get one for my friend’s birthday. Since the business is still in its early stages, they offer a limited selection of 2-4 flavors per week, and pick-ups are only available on Sundays (unless you specifically request an earlier pick-up).Basque Cheesecake became a trend in Korea a few years ago, and I've tried my fair share during its popularity. Even compared to those, the Basque cheesecakes here were much better. On my first visit, I got the OG Burnt, and my friends and I were all raving about how good it was. The exterior was dense yet pillowy, while the interior was soft and oozy, reminiscent of biting into ice cream. The Graham crust at the bottom added a nice burst of sweetness, so its sweetness level struck the perfect balance between the less sweet "Korean" Basque cheesecake and the typically sweeter American cheesecake.The following week, I picked up three large cakes to share with my colleagues: OG, Lime Margarita, and Borim’s Matcha. The OG and Matcha cakes were particularly popular, but all of them were just as good as the first one I tried. Duly also generously included a small Panama Coffee cake, which had a subtle and pleasant coffee flavoring that everyone enjoyed.Highly recommend getting one of these cakes before they become even more popular. I've seen people paying high shipping fees just to try them from NY. Will probably satisfy my cheesecake cravings exclusively from here from now on.

Duly's cheesecakes are now my go-to for bringing over to dinner parties. So far I've had the original and the matcha, and both were super delicious in their own ways. I look forward to trying more of his creations!

Absolutely hooked on this Basque cheese cake! The contrast between the almost chewy-like outer layer and the creamy, melty inside is absolute bliss. Each bite has different layers of flavor and every chew you can really pull out the taste. It has almost salty cheesy + chewy exterior and that soft sweet melty inside. Graham crust is also worthy to fight for, not to mention how beautiful it looks. Highly addictive, won't be able to stop at just one slice. I let my friend had a bite and he immediately ordered one on the spot.

Korean Momma's cheesecakes are simply another level. When I took my first bite, I told my husband that I knew I would be a returning customer. I was super excited to introduce friends to Duly's cheesecakes as well, and they've become returning customers too! So far I have tried the OG, the Panama coffee, the Blk T Honey, and the matcha flavors. You can't go wrong with any of them!
