Pastry Chef Rana believes that the very first “cheesecake” may have been created on the Greek island of Samos. Physical anthropologists excavated cheese molds there which were dated circa 2,000 B.C. Cheese and cheese products had most likely been around for thousands of years prior –dating back to prehistoric times (the period in human history before the invention of writing) so we will never really know. In Greece,
Cheesecake was considered to be a good source of energy, and there is evidence that it was served to athletes during the first Olympic Games in 776 B.C. Greek brides and grooms were also known to use cheesecake for their wedding cake. The simple, ingredients of flour, wheat, honey and cheese were formed into a cake and baked – a far cry from the more complicated recipes available today.
