Chicago-Style is Eli's Invention

Dry Hot Bake

Eli broke all the rules! No water bath and a dry hot bake resulted in the most beautiful carmalized cake with a rich and creamy interior.

Shortbread Cookie Crust

Our cheesecake is baked on top of a giant all-butter shortbread cookie! It's like two desserts in one.

The best vanilla

We use only the best cold-extracted vanilla from Nielsen-Massey, a fellow family-owned business made in Illinois.

Really good dairy

We use slow-cultured cream cheese and sour cream, plus fresh creamery butter. That signature cultured tang is balanced with just the right sweetness, because we'd never use sugar to mask really good dairy.

Hand-Decorated

From frosting layer cakes to swirling cheesecakes and enrobing our Cuties and Dippers, our team of decorators are true artists.

#1 Carrot Cake

My boyfriend bought me this cake as a surprise. I am a carrot cake lover and have tried them from multiple different bakeries. There is no carrot cake that tops this one, and its delivered frozen. That to me is absolutely incredible. Its moist and sweet, but gives you the perfect balance of nuts and raisins, the sliced carrots in it are crunchy and phenomal. The cream cheese frosting is sweet and creamy. If you love carrot cake or are looking for the perfect cake to bring to your next holiday party, go with this one, you'll love it and your guests will rave about it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Chicago-style cheesecake?

Eli’s is the definitive Chicago-style cheesecake. In 1980, Eli Schulman declared cheesecake would be the signature dessert for his legendary Chicago steakhouse, Eli’s The Place For Steak. His unconventional fast and hot baking method resulted in the creation of “Chicago-style” cheesecake, caramelized on the outside, creamy on the inside, baked on an all butter shortbread cookie crust. Over 45 years later, we’ve added more delicious sweet treats to the mix, handmade at our bakery in Chicago.

Where is Eli’s Cheesecake made?

All of our desserts are handmade at our family-owned bakery on the Northwest Side of Chicago!
