Hi Food Lover,

At the big family egg hunt and feast Sunday, one of my mother-in-laws (I'm blessed with two and they're awesome) mentioned the rhubarb was just starting to pop out of the ground.

We gushed about how much we liked rhubarb, listing all the ways we use it (pies, crumbles, and preserves mostly) and we waxed poetically about rhubarb being a harbinger of spring, the first flavor of the season, a big leafed bounty of tart and sweet and bright.

Most of our conversations about food devolve into poetry, so this was completely normal. But maybe rhubarb isn't normal for you.

If you live in a northern-type state like Washington (where most of the commercial rhubarb is grown), Oregon, Wisconsin, Michigan, etc...you might have a patch growing by your house or maybe outside grandma's kitchen.

But if you live below the frostline (so to speak), rhubarb is as exotic as dragon fruit. So let me tell you about this cheesecake to get you better acquainted.

Rhubarb Cheesecake
$115
free 2 business day shipping

Right off the bat you should know that we have a limited number of rhubarb cheesecakes available. They'll be ready to ship starting April 8th, but you'll want to reserve one sooner than later if this is your thing.

And if you love cheesecake and wonder if there's a way it could be even better, this is definitely your thing.

The master bakers at Zingerman's Bakehouse start with the same base we use for our classic cheesecake.Fresh rhubarb is chopped, mixed into the cheesecake batter, then baked atop the sugar cookie crust. Each bite gets a fresh, bright burst of rhubarb to balance the decadence of the cheesecake.

Rhubarb is magical and the perfect foil to the smooth, rich, sweet flavors you normally experience with cheesecake. The brightness and slightly tart notes cause your tastebuds to punch through the buttery richness of the cheesecake so that you don't just taste the creaminess, you taste and experience all the flavors for all the feels.

Sound like your kind of cheesecake? Me, too.
