Can you freeze cheesecake?

Yes. To freeze a whole cheesecake, chill it in the freezer for about an hour until firm, then transfer it to an airtight container or wrap it tightly. Properly stored, it will keep well for about a month. For individual servings, slice the cheesecake first, freeze the slices for an hour to firm them up, then store the slices in an airtight container.

When you’re ready to enjoy the cheesecake, thaw it overnight in the refrigerator for best texture and flavor.
