A classic Uncle Tetsu's cheesecake

Uncle Tetsu's Cheesecake is a popular Japanese cheesecake brand known for its light and fluffy texture. The brand was founded by Tetsushi Mizokami in Fukuoka, Japan, in 1990. Uncle Tetsu's cheesecakes have gained international fame and have expanded to various countries, including Canada, the United States, and Australia.

History

Uncle Tetsu's Cheesecake was established in 1990 by Tetsushi Mizokami, who was inspired by his family's baking business. The original store opened in Fukuoka, Japan, and quickly became popular for its unique style of cheesecake, which combines cream cheese, butter, milk, and eggs to create a soft, airy texture.

The brand's success in Japan led to international expansion, with the first overseas store opening in Taipei, Taiwan, in 2011. Since then, Uncle Tetsu's has opened locations in several countries, including Canada, where the first store opened in Toronto in 2015.

Product

Uncle Tetsu's cheesecakes are known for their distinct texture and flavor, which differ from traditional Western cheesecakes. The cakes are baked in a water bath, which helps achieve their signature lightness. They are typically served plain, without any toppings, to highlight the delicate flavor of the cake itself.

The brand also offers other products, such as madeleines, honey madeleines, and rusks. However, the classic cheesecake remains the most popular item on the menu.

Popularity

Uncle Tetsu's Cheesecake has become a cultural phenomenon, with long lines often forming outside its stores. The brand's popularity is partly due to its limited production, as each cake is made fresh and in small batches. This has created a sense of exclusivity and demand among customers.

The brand has also gained attention through social media, where customers frequently share photos and reviews of their experiences at Uncle Tetsu's stores.
