Handling Instructions

All of our Cheesecakes are shipped frozen in specially designed packaging that safely transports our products. Cakes will ship with gel-paks or dry ice depending on the style of cake chosen.

Dry Ice Notes

  • As long as your cake is cool to the touch, it’s perfect for eating (even if there is no dry ice left).
  • Do not handle dry ice with bare hands.
  • Do not place dry ice directly in your sink.
  • Let dry ice dissipate in the cooler away from children and pets.

 These cakes will be shipped in a Junior's signature orange and white striped box. After you receive your box, do the following

  • Remove Cheesecake from packaging upon arrival.
    • For cakes shipped with gel-paks, dispose of the styrofoam and place the cake in the provided Junior's striped box.
    • For cakes shipped with dry ice, see above instructions.
  • Consume, refrigerate, or refreeze. Whichever you choose, your Junior's Cheesecake will taste as fresh as if you were enjoying it in one of our restaurants.
    • Cheesecakes last 7 days in the fridge or up to 6 months in the freezer.
    • Note: cakes can be refrozen.

Serving Suggestions

  • Cheesecakes should be served at room temperature. Please be patient.
  • If refrigerated, defrost on the counter 6-8 hours before serving.
    • Yes, it really takes that long. Yes, it’s worth the wait.
    • No, it won’t be the end of the world if you eat it cold.
  • If frozen, leave the cake in the fridge overnight then defrost on the counter before serving.
    Again, this takes time...
  • Use a knife that has been dipped in hot water to cut the cheesecake. A chef's knife or cake knife works best.
  • Wipe the knife with a damp towel in between each slice to ensure a smooth cut.
  • Watch for fast hands trying to grab the cut slices! Enjoy!
