1. The history of cheesecake
Cheesecake is believed to have
originated in ancient Greece.
Historians believe that cheesecake
was served to the athletes during
the first Olympic Games held in 776
B.C. However, cheese making can be
traced back as far as 2,000 B.C.,
anthropologists have found cheese
molds dating back to that period.
The Romans spread cheesecake from
Greece to across Europe. Centuries later cheesecake
appeared in America, the recipes brought over by
immigrants.
