Hi,
I'm here for the first time reading your low-carb recipes.
I live in Finland, so my english isn't very well. And I do not understand for exemple all the meanings of different ingrediants in cakes and so on.
And now I wonder, if this cheesecake is really made without any flover. I think it's not a cake at all, just a toping.
welcome kaarina! it is nice to meet you! cheesecake has no flour in it at all! the cream cheese and eggs make it thick. it is like a really hard custard. it is delicious!
Is this suitable for the induction diet? I'm new here!
Hi, I'm a new member and I'm having a hard time trying to figure out which recipes are for Induction dieters??? Is there a special section that I can go to? Also, I'm reading on some of the forums that people drink coffee and tea. I thought this was really not allowed? Regards, danbus
I just read this recipe, and it solved my Thanksgiving dessert problem. I don't have a springform pan, so right after I read the recipe, I went on-line to Target and ordered one, ($12.99). Thank you so much for this dessert idea!

We made it and it smelled heavenly. Let it cool in the fridge overnight and had it the next day. I was very tastey! I did add the optional orange and lemon zest, BF thought it could have used a little less orange zest, I used a smaller orange and an average sized lemon.
