    When you decide to include a truly gourmet cheesecake as your dessert, be certain its look on the plate is as elegant as the dessert. A meal, especially at the end, should appeal to the visual sense as well. These are some suggestions, but, of course, you may add your own individual touches.

    New York Cheesecake: This is what most people would think of as the plain or “unflavored” cheesecake. Frankly, it is anything but! However, the taste is one that will adjust well to almost all additions. Well, maybe not broccoli! I recommend that you should consider complimenting the richness of this versatile cheesecake by putting a generous serving of hot fudge around the serving plate.

    Blueberry Cheesecake: Buy an exceptional quality blueberry preserve. Mix in a sufficient amount of fresh lemon juice to dilute the preserves so that the mixture will come off a spoon on its own. Drizzle the diluted preserves in a zigzag pattern across top of the cake. The tartness of the juice will provide a nice counterpoint to the sweet taste of the preserves and cheesecake.

    Chocolate Turtle Cheesecake: This cheesecake has a variety of flavors incorporated, so it’s a good idea not to try to introduce a new one. Instead, place a few flower petals around the plate to enhance the appearance. Orange petals especially compliment the color of the cheesecake.

    Pumpkin Cheesecake, a holiday season favorite, is even smoother than the more traditional pumpkin pie. Cut a festive hole in some paper–tree shaped or a five pointed star. Center the paper over the top of the slice. In the hole, gently shake cinnamon.

    Sugar Free Cheesecakes–no sugar added: No matter what the flavor of the dessert, a mint sprig atop the widest part of the cheesecake wedge, will dress it up delightfully without adding any additional sweetness.

    The appearance is affected not only by the contents of the dish but additionally by the nature of the platter, itself. Certainly, the small plates that are part of your china set will serve your purpose. But the additional storage areas in modern homes permit many of us to keep specialty plates. Many people have unique salsa and chip servers, instead of the old fashioned bowls. Why not get special serving pieces that you use for those spectacular dessert celebrations?

    A gourmet cheesecake is certainly worth the price, even though it may not be a frequent part of your diet. Those times when you are about to splurge, party with your eyes in addition to your mouth!

    Think back to the carefree films of the 1930s, forties or fifties.  Picture the social gathering that became the turning point of the movie’s romantic plot.  Men and women in formal attire converse only in clever banter and waltz with swirling grace.  In their hands, an elegant martini.  These days, we tend to entertain much more casually, even if we might still attempt clever dialogue.

    Most of us don’t have friends with magnificent mansions; neither do we have the budgets that allow us to bring home many bottles of imported gin and tin after tin of beluga caviar.  Furthermore, we not as comfortable in tuxedos as in unbuttoned shirts. Specialty coffee and a luscious dessert may be more appropriate ingredients for the relaxed social evenings of our times.

    Your neighborhood certainly has a local bakery that sells cheesecake, or you might explore a little farther from home to find something that all of your guest don’t already experience in their everyday lives.  You can have a selection of truly exquisite cheesecake delivered right to your home from across the country or a different part of your state.

    Consider a selection of cheesecakes to meet the varied tastes of your guests.  You might want to include a turtle cheesecake for the people who enjoy a bit of chocolate in any dessert.  You can decorate with just a few shavings of dark chocolate, and all the people can pretend that they are eating a health food.

    A key lime cheesecake, provides a welcome alternative for those of us who enjoy combining tart and sweet.  Think about a couple mint leaves as a garnish.

    Don’t overlook those who are interested in splurging without sacrificing their dietary restrictions too much.  Magnificent sugar free, low carb cheesecakes are available with tastes and textures that can rival their traditional counterparts.  Add a couple berries or a thin slice of fresh pear. 

    Create some labels for each of your alternatives, so your guests can can know their choices without having to ask.

    Of course, you’ll want to include a robust decaf option.  In addition choose to present just one interestingly flavored coffee.  Add to that a bold roast from Jamaica or Columbia.

    Keep the cream, non-fat milk and non-dairy creamer in an ice bath in a shallow, decorative bowl.  Throw in some cubed sugar with sterling silver tongs, for a decorative touch.

    A gourmet evening such as this is the twenty-first century equivalent of the cocktail party.  Plus, you can be confident that your beloved guests will get home safely.

    Turtle Cheesecake: This cheesecake has a variety of flavors incorporated, so it’s a good idea not to try to add yet another one. Instead, place just a few flower petals around the platter to add to the appearance. Yellow petals particularly enhance the color of the cake.
