More Tips & Variations

Servings

This blueberry lemon cheesecake can be cut into 9 small pieces of 70 kcal. However, these are very small pieces. If you plan to make this cake for several people, I recommend you to use double the amount.

Variations

Are you not a huge fan of the blueberry-lemon combination? No problem, you can simply replace the blueberries with raspberries, strawberries, blackberries or cherries and the lemon with orange if you prefer.

Storage 

It is best to store the cheesecake in the refrigerator and consume it within 2-3 days after preparation. 

Suitable Accompaniment

If you’re enjoying this low calorie cheesecake on a warm day, I recommend a delicious and refreshing drink to go with it. How about an iced coffee or a homemade iced tea?
