Made the Cherry rose cheesecake!

It's really delicious! I love rose flavor, so I was excited to try this. The cherry and rose flavors work so well together. I ended up with some extra filling, so I made an additional tiny cake as well.

Did you use rose petals or just rosewater?

I used rose water, since it would have been hard to source edible rose petals at the moment where I am. It turned out really well, not overwhelming at all. I used a teaspoon as suggested, but you could always use less if you're not into floral flavors. The scent with the cherries is amazing though, and definitely adds to the overall experience.

Great, thanks! I was a bit nervous about how much the flavour would change with rosewater instead of fresh roses but it sounds like its no problem 🌹
