What are the benefits of making Sous Vide Cheesecake In Jars?
Making Sous Vide Cheesecake In Jars offers several notable benefits:
- Consistent Texture: Sous vide cooking ensures precise temperature control, resulting in a consistently smooth and creamy texture throughout the cheesecake, without the risk of overcooking or curdling.
- No Cracks: Traditional baked cheesecakes are prone to cracking during the cooking process. Using sous vide, which cooks the cheesecake gently and evenly, significantly reduces the likelihood of unsightly cracks forming on the surface.
- Convenient Portioning: Baking cheesecake in individual jars allows for convenient portioning, making it perfect for serving at gatherings or for meal prep. Each jar serves as a single-serving dessert, ideal for portion control and easy storage.
- Enhanced Flavor Infusion: When cooked sous vide, the cheesecake mixture is sealed within the jars, allowing flavours to infuse more deeply and intensify throughout the cooking process. This results in a richer, more flavorful cheesecake compared to traditional baking methods.
- Versatility: Sous vide cheesecake in jars offers versatility in presentation and serving. Whether you’re hosting a dinner party or simply indulging in a personal treat, serving cheesecake in jars adds a touch of elegance and makes for an impressive dessert presentation.
- Make-ahead Convenience: Sous vide cheesecake in jars can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve. This make-ahead convenience allows you to prepare dessert ahead of time, freeing up valuable time on the day of your event or gathering.
- Minimal Cleanup: Cleanup is a breeze since the cheesecakes are cooked directly in jars. Remove the jars from the sous vide water bath, allow them to cool, and refrigerate until ready to enjoy. Plus, there are no pans or springform moulds to clean afterward.

How do we store sous vide cheesecake in Jars? How long can these be kept in the fridge?
Storing sous vide cheesecake in jars is incredibly easy, thanks to the airtight seal created during the sous vide process. Here’s a simple guide:
- Cooling: Allow the sous vide cheesecake jars to cool completely at room temperature before transferring them to the refrigerator. This prevents condensation from forming inside the jars, which could affect the cheesecake’s texture.
- Sealing: Once cooled, keep the lids tightly secured on the jars. There’s no need for additional plastic wrap, as the jars are already airtight due to the sous vide cooking method.
- Refrigeration: Place the sealed cheesecake jars in the refrigerator. Ensure they are stored on a flat surface to prevent tipping.
- Shelf Life: With the lids securely fastened, sous vide cheesecake in jars can typically be kept in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. It’s always a good idea to check for any signs of spoilage before consuming, such as unusual odours or changes in texture.
By following these simple steps, you can store your sous vide cheesecake in jars safely and enjoy its creamy goodness for up to a week.
