    sure thing sami, we're just checking that a couple of the swaps work out well ie greek yoghurt for double cream, white sugar in place of brown... but I expect aless will be ready to give her verdict V soon! Is a baked cheesecake american-style, do you like those? will post once aless gives the thumbs up!
