I know things like these are all down to quality but there is no way I’m paying 36 quid for a cheesecake.1

For a special occasion I don't think £2-£3 a portion is excessive as long as the quality is there and I'd expect them to be better than I can buy from a supermarket.0

I'm with you! There must still be people out there that can and will, though - otherwise such businesses would not exist.PLRFD said:I know things like these are all down to quality but there is no way I’m paying 36 quid for a cheesecake.

My "excuse", when I need to justify the guilt of some foodie extravagance, is that it would cost a lot more if we were eating it in a restaurant, so it's actually a bargain!Waitrose sells some English Cheesecake Company products - 2 slices for £3.30. They're in the chiller cabinet. The whole cheesecakes on the ECC website seem to be delivered frozen, but presumably they're otherwise pretty similar.1

Don't ever feel guilty. This forum is not just about buying the cheapest food, getting a deal on a more expensive item is still money saving.1
