Lessons

In this course, you will learn in detail how to create the classic San Sebastian cheesecake — a minimalist yet highly refined dessert known for its unique texture and flavor. The lessons are structured step by step, helping you understand every detail that separates a good cheesecake from an exceptional one.

You will learn how to achieve the perfect batter: smooth, creamy, and homogeneous, without excess air or imperfections. We will cover ingredient selection, correct ratios, and proper mixing techniques.

A key focus of the course is baking — you will master temperature and timing to achieve the signature caramelized top and the soft, slightly jiggly, creamy center. We will also cover cooling and setting, which are critical for the final texture and stability.

Additionally, you will learn how to portion and present the cheesecake cleanly and elegantly, suitable for both professional display and premium serving.

By the end of the course, you will be able to create an authentic San Sebastian cheesecake with its signature “controlled imperfection” and perfectly balanced taste.
