MUMBAI: Desserts don’t usually make the city stop and stare, but this one jiggles its way into the spotlight. La Chérie, Pune’s cult-favourite cheesecake label, has floated into Mumbai with its now-iconic “Dancing Cloud” Japanese cheesecake, a dessert so airy it’s redefining indulgence.
Unlike the dense, sugar-heavy cheesecakes most Mumbaikars know, La Chérie’s version is souffle-light, made in small daily batches, and entirely preservative-free. The texture is the star delicate, cloud-soft, and melt-in-the-mouth with no gelatin, agar, compound chocolate, or artificial stabilisers sneaking in. A quiet rebellion against hyper-processed sweets, it focuses on freshness, technique, and purity.
The range caters to every mood: a Mini Dancing Cloud at Rs 299, a Chocolate variant at Rs 359 for solo indulgence, or the Big Dancing Cloud Whole Cheesecake at Rs 899 for celebrations. Available via Swiggy and Zomato, the cakes are crafted to be enjoyed warm or chilled, depending on preference.
The timing couldn’t be more perfect. With Japanese flavours gaining ground in Mumbai from matcha menus to omakase dining La Chérie taps straight into the city’s evolving palate. What started as a quiet cult in Pune is now shaping Mumbai’s premium dessert scene, proving that sometimes the lightest creations leave the heaviest mark.
