The Best Creamy Cheesecakes in Malaysia [10 Dream Spots You Shouldn’t Miss!]
One rainy afternoon, a friend invited me out for a casual coffee catch-up at a quiet cafe in Kuala Lumpur. I was halfway through my cappuccino when she slid a plate across the table—velvety cheesecake topped with berries—and insisted that I should take the first bite.
The forkful changed everything! From the buttery crust to the centre that melted my tongue, I suddenly understood why people speak about cheesecake like it’s a love language.
From then on, whenever I travel and there’s a chance to stop over at a coffee shop or bakery, I always take the lead to check if there’s an available cheesecake. So, if you’re looking for some recommendations, here are the cheesecake spots all over Malaysia that I’ll surely visit again!
Cake Tella

Address: 35, Jalan SS 26/15, Taman Mayang Jaya, 47301 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
Contact details: +60103976687
Operating hours:
- Tuesday to Saturday – 10:30 AM to 5:30 PM
Cost: $$
If you’re someone who’s always torn between dessert and a drink, Cake Tella might just fix that for you. Their cheesecakes are a bold twist on the classic, combining boozy flavours with creamy textures that feel like a grown-up indulgence.
I gave the burnt marble cheesecake a go, and it’s hands-down one of the most balanced cakes I’ve had—not too sweet, with just the right amount of caramelisation. They’re not your average bakery either because this one runs as a cloud kitchen with pickup slots and online ordering, so everything feels a bit more personal, made-to-order.
If you like a little buzz with your dessert, go for their Roku Gin collaborations or the poppy lemon cheesecake for something fresh but still rich. Plus, their service is quick and flexible, which makes a difference when you’re planning a mini celebration.
| Pro tip: Ask for the alcoholic cake bites if you’re not ready to commit to a full cake. You’ll get a sampler of their boldest combos, and it’s perfect if you’re sharing or just testing the waters. |
Lachér Patisserie HQ

Address: 17, Jln Teknologi 3/3A, Surian Industrial Park, 47810 Kota Damansara, Selangor
Contact details: +60361410888
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 10 AM to 6 PM
Cost: $$
Ordering from Lacher Patisserie felt like unboxing a gift—everything from the packaging to the flavour balance was well thought out. Their Gateau Fromage, a silky cheesecake with a hint of lemon, is probably one of the lightest yet flavourful cheesecakes you’ll try!
It’s ideal if you’re after something elegant and not too dense. Although they don’t have a dine-in spot, the delivery process is smooth and punctual, with pickup also available if you’re nearby.
You’ll notice the attention to detail in every layer of their cakes, especially if you go for more complex combos like the Raspberry Valrhona Jivara Mousse. It’s not your everyday dessert—more of a save it for a special day kind of treat.
| Pro tip: If you’re gifting someone or celebrating something big, ask about their limited seasonal flavours. They rotate quietly and often sell out fast, but they tend to be the most creative ones on the menu. |
Say Cheese Bakery

Address: C-15-G, Shoplot, Jalil Link, 2, Jalan Jalil Perkasa, Bukit Jalil, 57000 Kuala Lumpur
Contact details: +60176400458
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 11 AM to 10 PM
Cost: $$
You can spot Say Cheese Bakery by the smell of grilled mains and creamy cheesecakes that hit you before the door even opens. I dropped by for their a la carte buffet, and while the big eats were satisfying, it was the cheesecakes that stuck with me.
Their Jaguar Belgian Cheesecake stood out for it’s smooth, cheesy, and light enough that you won’t get tired halfway through. The cafe itself is spacious and cosy, great if you’re coming with a bunch of friends.
They’ve nailed their chocolate burnt cheesecake and cheese lava. And yes, the staff genuinely seemed to enjoy being there—you’ll feel it when you chat with them.
| Pro tip: Go for their cheese lava and add-on even if you’re ordering just dessert. It adds a fun twist to your cheesecake, and it’s not something you’ll find in most bakeries around town. |
Komugi

Address: LG078, Lower Ground, Mid Valley, Lingkaran Syed Putra, Mid Valley City, 59200 Kuala Lumpur
Contact details: +60322012846
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 9 AM to 10 PM
Cost: $$
Komugi’s Hanjuku Cheesecake does live up to the hype—soft, creamy, and almost souffle-like. It’s the kind of cake you finish without realising because it’s just so light on your palate.
I also tried the Caramel Indulgence Cheesecake, which I also highly recommend, for its mellow sweetness and smooth texture. The store setup is simple but polished, and they have plenty of options if you’re after other Japanese-style desserts and pastries.
Their team is quick and polite, and that makes grabbing a takeaway or a quick bite super easy. Prices are pretty decent too, especially considering the freshness since everything is baked daily.
| Pro tip: If you’re planning to buy a cheesecake for a celebration, check out their pre-packed mini versions. They make great gifts or easy party sampler without needing to commit to a full-sized cake. |
Elevete Patisserie

Address: 12, Jalan SS 26/13, Taman Mayang Jaya, 47301 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
Contact details: +60183703770
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 9 AM to 7 PM
Cost: $$
If you’re into variety and you like trying a bit of everything, Elevete’s cake slices are your playground. Their burnt cheesecake is a popular pick, but what got my attention was the dirty tiramisu cheesecake—creamy with a strong coffee bite and a nutty crunch that ties it all together.
You can get them delivered fast too, which is great if you’re planning last-minute surprises. Though there’s no dine-in option, the experience doesn’t fall short—everything arrives neatly packed and looking just like the photos.
The New York cheesecake is another solid option, dense and creamy without being overly rich. Bonus points for their customer service, which is super responsive and always accommodating with custom notes and touches.
| Pro tip: Go for their Mix & Match slices if you’re indecisive. You’ll get to try their signature flavours like chocolate tuxedo and tokeru cheesecake in one go without committing to a full cake. |
Junandus

Contact details: +60195103768
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 9 AM to 6 PM
Cost: $$
If you’re scrambling for a last-minute cake, Junandus has you covered. I ordered their New York Cheesecake the night before a birthday, and it arrived on time the next day.
The texture was creamy, not too sweet, and had that solid baked cheesecake finish. It’s the kind of cake your whole family ends up finishing.
What I appreciated most was their reliable delivery and prompt updates. You’ll know exactly when your cake is arriving—super helpful if you’re juggling other things.
| Pro tip: If you’re eyeing more than one flavour, their slice bundle deals let you try multiple options without committing to full-sized cakes. It’s a smart way to figure out your favourite before your next celebration. |
Delectable by Su HQ

Address: Level 2, Glasshouse at Seputeh, 17, Lorong Syed Putra Kiri, Taman Seputeh, 50460 Kuala Lumpur
Contact details: +60125081855
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 9 AM to 5 PM
Cost: $$
You’ll find Delectable by Sy tucked away inside the Glasshouse at Seputeh, and while the cafe is known for its events and party sets, it’s the cheesecake that quietly steals the spotlight.
The Beach Paradise Cheesecake and Wildberry Baked Cheesecake each offer a fresh, fruity balance that makes them easy to enjoy even after a heavy meal. For something different, the Mini Bunny Cheesecakes and Bunny Cheesecake Tart are more than just cute—they taste good too.
Their cakes are well thought out in terms of sweetness, texture, and presentation, and you can tell the kitchen takes pride in not going overboard. Plus, the fact that you can plan a party and have the cheesecake as your centrepiece.
| Pro tip: Go for the Tim Tam Cheesecake if you want something more indulgent. It’s not always on the radar like the others, but it hits that nostalgic chocolate crunch note that’s surprisingly satisfying. |
Champignons Patisserie
– Media credit: champignonspatisserie
Address: 27-1, Jalan PJU 5/11, Dataran Sunway, Kota Damansara, 47810 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
Contact details: +60176006710
Operating hours:
- Tuesday to Sunday – 10 AM to 10 PM
Cost: $$
At Champignons Patisserie in Kota Damansara, you’re walking into a space where pastries are designed like they belong in a gallery. While the display case will tempt you with plenty of options, their soft centre cheesecake and blueberry cheesecake are the bestsellers known for being silky, balanced, and fresh.
If you like mild sweetness and a touch of artistry in your dessert, this spot hits that niche well. You don’t get a massive dine-in area, but you do get a solid coffee lineup to match your slice.
Staff are always helpful (even if you show up early), and the vibe is calm despite the limited seating. It’s also one of those rare places that treat every cheesecake slice with enough attention that you can taste and observe the difference!
| Pro tip: If you spot their seasonal patisserie collections like the Reindeer or Ruby, grab them with your cheesecake! They’re small, but packed with surprising flavour and make great add-ons to any takeaway box. |
Kuke Desserterie
– Media credit: kukemy
Address: 1st Floor, 4, Jalan 28/70a, Desa Sri Hartamas, 50480 Kuala Lumpur
Contact details: +60189814514
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 10 AM to 6 PM
Cost: $$
At Kuke Desserterie, you’re not just getting dessert, you’re getting Malaysian flavours dressed in cheesecake form. Their Puan Sri Special stands out if you like the coffee notes and a bit of crunch with your slice.
Personally, I couldn’t ignore The Saint, which is their burnt cheesecake with a gooey centre that honestly feels like a cheat code for indulgence. What’s cool about Kuke is how they play with combinations you won’t get elsewhere—like The Triple C (cheesecake + carrot + coffee) and Zebra (chocolate + cheesecake).
Their pandan-forward Rasa Sayang brings that nostalgic Malaysian taste into a Japanese-style cheesecake, and it works surprisingly well. If you’re adventurous or just bored with plain cheesecakes, you’ll feel right at home here.
| Pro tip: Order your cakes a day in advance online, especially The Saint, because walk-ins often miss out once the lava centre ones sell out. It’s that popular. |
Purple Monkey & Pasta Ohsem
– Media credit: pastaohsem
Address: Ground Floor, 7, Jalan 1/114, Kuchai Business Centre, 58200 Kuala Lumpur
Contact details: +60127973700
Operating hours:
- Monday to Sunday – 10 AM to 11 PM
Cost: $$
If you’re the type who likes their dessert cold and dense, Purple Monkey might just be your new weakness. Their frozen cheesecakes come in all kinds of bold flavours—durian, biscotti, even purple yam—and the texture stays satisfyingly creamy even after hours in the fridge.
The crunch of the crust is a nice contrast, and you’ll probably find yourself accidentally finishing the whole slice before you know it. What makes this place unique isn’t just the funky name—it’s that their cakes are designed to be party-ready straight out of the freezer.
You can pick one up a day before your event, and it’ll taste fresh and indulgent the next day. They’ve got multiple ordering platforms too, from ShopeeFood to Grab, and the packaging is sturdy enough for delivery.
| Pro tip: Go for their smaller combo boxes if you want to sample a few flavours before committing to a whole cake. It’s the best way to find your favourite without overspending. |
