SWEET! Illinois Cheesecake Shop Officially Opens Next Month
In May of 2024, woman-owned cheesecake shop, CheeseKake Ko., announced they'd be opening a brick-and-mortar location in Ashton, Illinois. Now, they're ready to open their doors to the public!
Cheesecake is my favorite dessert, hands down. When I found out they’re opening a storefront after visiting them so many times at Rockford City Market—I screamed!
Katelyn, Keri & Tina make incredible homemade cheesecakes at CheeseKake Ko. It's so exciting to see their dream of opening a storefront become a reality.
"When we started this business, we always dreamed of having a brick and mortar. We would share so many different ideas and what we would do if we had our own storefront. Sometimes I felt like we were living in a fantasy land dreaming about everything we could do. So let me tell you the surreal feeling of actually purchasing our very first brick and mortar. Ashton, we are so excited to make you our new home!" [CheeseKake Ko]
They've been hard at work transforming their bakery and making it feel like home. Take a look at what they've done with the space! Looks cozy and made with love.

Can't wait until the displays, shelves, and coolers are filled with fresh, homemade cheesecake on opening day! Something about the smell of a bakery just hits different.
This is totally worth the drive, just sayin'.
When will they be opening? The word is out!
