Cheesecake Melliza can be said to have begun in two ways: from an MBA paper bearing the same project name and from a barkada-choir’s disappointing experiences with desserts they ordered every so often after their practice. Melvyn Isidro, part of the barkada-choir and one of the founders of Cheesecake Melliza, used to complain about the poor quality of cheesecakes that his friends would order. He suddenly had an inspiration: to use the cheesecake recipe of his mother, named Melliza, and come up with a dessert place offering top quality cheesecakes at a friendly price.

With four branches around Metro Manila and 21 cheesecake flavors to choose from, Cheesecake Melliza is proud of its success. From the classic Blueberry Cheesecake to the most eclectic Peanut Butter Banana, Cheesecake Melliza is steadily setting the standards for cheesecake in our country. Cheesecakes at Melliza’s use graham crackers as a crust, while the cheesecake layer is dense, rich and sweetened just right.
