The Colossal California Cheesecake Challenge

Sometimes it’s about the journey, sometimes it’s about the destination, and sometimes it’s about the cheesecake. Whether you are a cheesecake fanatic or you are dying to see California from a new perspective, this challenge is for you. The Colossal California Cheesecake Challenge it not for the weak. You will traverse over 1,200 miles of California terrain and completely satisfy any cheesecake craving, longing, or yearning you have ever had.

Challenge Details

It just so happens that there are 34 varieties of delectable cheesecake on the Cheesecake Factory menu (depending on the locations and season) and 34 restaurant locations in California. Coincidence? Probably. This happy coincidence lays the groundwork for The Colossal California Cheesecake Challenge. Basically, we challenge you to visit each of the 34 California Cheesecake locations and eat a new variety of Cheesecake at each location.

We have mapped out a plan that takes you to each and every Cheesecake Factory location and pairs each stop with a unique piece of Cheesecake — starting with a pretty yummy cheesecake to the most delicious cheesecake, according to power-rankings provided by Thrillist. Take a selfie (photograph of yourself) in front of each restaurant, and submit them to [email protected]. The first to complete the challenge (must be within the span of one week) will be awarded a $500 gift certificate to The Cheesecake Factory.* Pretty awesome, right?
