M&S Sunken Passion Fruit and Mango Cheesecake




I've been wanting to try this for a long time, along with the St Clements marmalade cheesecake, but I think they have discontinued it, and this Mango and passion fruit cheesecake has taken it's place.

The plastic packaging is very annoying and makes the cheesecake difficult to cut and lift out of the container. After a few attempts, I managed to get a piece out, but it didn't look as nice as I would've liked. 

The chunks of Mango and passion fruit in the centre were very sweet, perhaps a bit too sweet. I liked the hidden pockets of the mango and passion fruit filling inside the cheesecake. The cheesecake itself was firm in texture with pieces of vanilla beans throughout. However, I thought that it was lacking something – it wasn't particularly creamy. The biscuit base was quite hard and again, lacked something.

Not the best cheesecake I've had, it certainly didn't taste as good as it looked. It was also not worth the £4.50 I paid. Overall, a bit of a disappointment and I wouldn't buy it again.

Price: £4.50 
Rating: 3/5
