If you think you know cheesecake, BRNT will change your mind.
The Fat Bull Co. has launched its newest dessert pop-up, BRNT, a concept built around one legendary creation: the Burnt Authentic Basque cheesecake. With its dramatic dark crust and irresistibly creamy centre, this cheesecake delivers an indulgence that is both rustic and refined, bold yet comfortingly simple.

BRNT introduces Limassol and Nicosia to a dessert crafted not with perfection in mind, but with fire, flavour, and fearless baking, the same principles that shaped The Fat Bull Co.’s rise in the culinary scene.

What Is Burnt Basque Cheesecake? A Dessert Born From Fire, Not Precision

Burnt Basque cheesecake originates from San Sebastián, Spain, a city famed for food that prioritises flavour over flawless appearance. Unlike traditional cheesecakes that aim for smooth surfaces and low-and-slow baking, the Basque version is baked hot and fast.

The result is iconic:

  • A deep, burnt top that provides caramelized depth
  • A soft, flowing, ultra-creamy centre
  • Cracks, imperfections, and a rustic look that symbolise authenticity

This contrast, burnt on the outside, molten on the inside, is what makes the Basque cheesecake unforgettable.

Why BRNT by The Fat Bull Co. Stands Out

BRNT isn’t just another dessert option. It’s a philosophy much like the one behind The Fat Bull Co.’s famous burgers.
Every cheesecake is crafted with:

  • Bold culinary choices rooted in tradition
  • Premium ingredients with no shortcuts
  • Zero toppings or unnecessary add-ons
  • A perfect balance of bitterness, sweetness, and warmth

BRNT stays faithful to the original Basque technique while delivering The Fat Bull Co.’s signature confidence. What you taste is pure Basque cheesecake, elevated with precision, clarity, and honesty.

The Moment Everyone Waits For: Breaking Through the Burnt Crust

The experience begins with the first spoon.
Cracking through the dark crust reveals a silky, molten interior that slowly flows outward. Each bite delivers:

  • A toasted, slightly bitter top that enhances the sweetness beneath
  • A smooth, velvety filling that melts effortlessly
  • A flavour profile that evolves with every spoonful

This sensory contrast is the soul of BRNT: simple, dramatic, and deeply satisfying.

A Dessert for Sharing or Keeping All to Yourself

Whether you’re enjoying it at home, pairing it with coffee after a meal, or bringing it to a gathering, BRNT is made for both connection and indulgence.

  • Place it at the centre of the table and let everyone break the crust together.
  • Or, savour it solo, slowly, spoonful by spoonful.

Just like The Fat Bull Co.’s burgers, BRNT has a way of bringing people together through honest, uncomplicated flavour.

Why “Burnt” Is the Secret Ingredient

In most recipes, burnt means failure.
But in Basque cheesecake, burnt is everything.

The burnt top:

  • Adds depth and complexity
  • Locks moisture inside, keeping the centre creamy
  • Balances sweetness with a subtle bitterness
  • Creates its signature dramatic appearance

This “perfect imperfection” is what makes BRNT unforgettable.

Perfect for Cheesecake Lovers and New Adventurers Alike

Whether you’re a cheesecake enthusiast or tasting Basque cheesecake for the first time, BRNT is designed to impress.

For cheesecake fans:
It’s richer in flavour yet lighter in feel than traditional New York–style cheesecake.

For newcomers:
It’s approachable, comforting, and instantly addictive. A dessert that surprises without overwhelming.

How to Enjoy BRNT at Its Best

To experience BRNT exactly as intended:

  • Serve it slightly chilled, not fully cold.
  • Use a spoon, not a knife.
  • Pair it with espresso, filter coffee, or enjoy it pure.
  • Avoid toppings. BRNT is meant to stand alone.

This method preserves the flowing centre while retaining the crust’s delicate structure.

A Dessert Designed to Be Remembered

When BRNT appears on the table, it immediately captures attention:

  • The dark, cracked crust invites curiosity.
  • The molten interior promises indulgence
  • The aroma hints at caramelisation and warmth.

From the first impression to the final bite, BRNT transforms a simple dessert into a memorable experience.
