Easy to order and pickup - got the classic Japanese cheesecake with berries (free lettering)($60). I was worried that a low carb, gluten free, sugar free, and diabetic friendly cheesecake could not be good. I was relieved to discover that the cake was not only made with natural ingredients, but was delicious, fluffy, and light, with just a faint sweetness. It's a good option if you want a healthier version of the dense, sweet, and rich typical cheesecake. It was the perfect dessert for the elderly birthday girl and we were all happy with it! read more

Quick Summary: - Punctual delivery service - To those, who don't view email inbox as often, check your inbox after ordering - Fluffy cake-like texture - Depending on where one lives, a delivery fee is added - Pairs well with coffee I discovered the shop when I was looking for my relative's birthday cake. They love cheesecake, and the particularly like the Japanese styled one, where it's more like a cake than the denser New York style. When I read the summary and the description of the cake, it sounded like the one my relative was craving for, so we gave it a try. I did the ordering online, by filling out the form. Within half a day, a reply arrives in your email inbox, so check the email. (Sadly, I don't have this habit of viewing emails, so I missed an email reply from the staff. I felt so sorry afterwards...) The cake arrived exactly around the date and time I requested, and it came in a very simple but pretty box. I loved the seal that said, made with love. It brings a nice, homemade touch to it. The cake was delicious, and the texture was what we had hoped for. The cake was light and fluffy, but also moist! I thought it was slightly on the sweeter side, but this paired extremely well with coffee. I was pleased with the experience, and my relative was also very happy with the birthday cake! read more

I got a classic cheesecake with strawberries and blueberries. It tastes fresh and fluffy - better than I expected and very different from any traditional cheesecake. I would come back for special occasions. You have to order ahead though because their orders are packed and short notices aren't guaranteed. read more

This cake tastes as amazing as it looks! Christina was super responsive via email when placing the order and text when scheduling a local pickup. Our family (kids included) thoroughly enjoyed the cake, especially for my aunt who follows a strict diabetic diet. If you're on the market for Japanese cheesecake in the East Bay, this is the place to go! read more

I got this for my girlfriend as she is diabetic and it was her birthday. They were able to make the cake on short notice and it came out perfectly. They helped facilitate a pickup even though I was late due to traffic. The cake came out exactly as described and had a unique flavor I've never had. It was very tasty and was lovely how mildly sweet it was. I was able to eat a lot of it due to it not being packed with sugar. Definitely would recommend to anyone who's diabetic or avoids sugar. read more

It's Mediocre. I told her about my preferences for sweetness but still it is too sweet for my liking. I ate one slice and gave the rest to my boyfriend and his roommate. I am glad they enjoyed it. Looks nice but a disappointment 40 bucks :*( for cake, in which I forgot to ask about the size and wasn't told 5 bucks for the appx 15 mins delivery No more handmade cakes in Bay Area I will learn from videos and bake my own. 45 bucks I can literally go for 3-4 rounds of ingredients.

Glad I tried this, but it's just not my style. To me the fluffy and light flavor of Asian cheesecakes is just not on the same level as the robust and creamy American conterpart. read more

I was looking for a Japanese soufflé cheesecake for my partner's birthday. I had looked up Uncle Tetsu but they were closed due to covid and a bit pricy. Luckily I found Sonshine Cheesecake; her cakes looked great, and she had great reviews on yelp and Facebook. I messaged her on fb on the 7th, and she replied immediately. I asked her if she could have one ready by the 10 and she said it was no problem. She was able to stencil my partner's name on the cake, sent photos, and then delivered it to our doorstep on the 10th in the middle of the day! The cheesecake was still warm, and packed in a bubble wrapper and a box for safety. It looked amazing and tasted even better! We devoured it over the course of a few days and have been craving another ever since! read more

Corinne made a cheesecake for me, for my moms birthday on short notice! This cake was the perfect size for my small family and we ALL enjoyed it. It's keto but it was the perfect sweet fluffy dessert (she uses monk fruit sweetener). I'm not on a keto diet and I honestly forgot it was keto. It was just delicious!! I'm just so happy it all worked out. Japanese cheesecake is my mom's favorite dessert and it made her day during this lockdown. Thanks again Corinne!! read more

I am obsessed with Sonshine Cheesecake's matcha cheesecake. I ordered a matcha cheesecake and normal cheesecake, and both had the best fluffy texture and were so airy. These cheesecakes were significantly more delicious than the other soufflé cheesecakes I've ordered in NYC/SF and honestly even in Hokkaido (they're all too way sweet and often lack the fluffy/bouncy texture and seem deflated). Both were also the perfect sweetness / not very sweet (perhaps because we asked Corinne for reduced sweetness), so we had a fantastic time enjoying them for breakfast too! The most exciting part, however, was that in addition to being truly delicious, the cheesecakes were the most gorgeous cheesecakes I've ever seen. Corinne is creative and helped me cut out custom stencils for Ghibli designs: Kiki and Totoro (or KE-TOtoro lolol)! I absolutely adore the design and I'm so grateful for Corinne's help in making all my keto and Ghibli dreams come true! I've recommended her to all of my friends. Thank you, Sonshine Cheesecake! read more

Sonshine cheesecake is so fluffy, light, and delicious! You can tell a lot of care went into baking this cake- it was perfect. I love how the ingredients are all natural and low carb. I think my daughter and I finished the entire cake in two days lol :) so tempting to order every week.... FYI- cake is not that sweet but you can add fruit to make it sweeter. Still yummy plain though! read more

I ordered a keto dessert for Father's Day. I went with the plain. It was a gorgeous cake stenciled and just beautiful to present. Tasted so delicious! It was light. It wasn't too sweet. Great for keto diets! I put some fruit on top and it really was the perfect dessert. Great service too..can't say enough good things! read more

I've ordered twice and both times the quality has been exceptional! The crispy crust and the rich moist cake go very well together. The consistency is stellar. The sweetness is less than you get from a typical bakery but just the right amount for us. Looking forward to more orders in the future. read more

Cannot say enough great things about this business! For my husband's 40th, I needed to find a keto birthday cake, and originally ordered something from Etsy. That showed up to me upside down in the box and I was desperate to find a replacement the DAY BEFORE THE PARTY. Turned out Sonshine Cheesecake was right here locally all along, and Corinne was so amazingly responsive to my panicked emails, and was able to accommodate me on super short notice. Because of tightness of schedule, we arranged for a midpoint to meet to do the handoff, and her son was just the sweetest! I was running late and he was so flexible. The cake was GORGEOUS, with a beautiful stenciled birthday message for my husband. And when it was time for blowing out the candles (well, hand-waving our the candles because Covid). everyone wanted to try the cheesecake (my husband was the only keto person) and they all looooooved it!!! It was DELICIOUS. I'm just glad there is a little left to have with tea tomorrow! So try this place - support them- they are so worth it! read more
