Backroads Bakery - Lexington

We stayed at a place walking distance from here and decided to try it on our way through town. So glad we stopped. This cheesecake is AMAZING. Seasonal flavors we had lemon tart, orange creamsicle and strawberry shortcake. Bites of mint, coffee and apple. Creamy smooth and made us want more, lovely lady who ran the shop.

This place is adorable! The owner is so kind and so easy to communicate with. The cheesecake is divine. A must try!

OMG… AMAZING ,!! We stopped into The Stave Restaurant couple miles from Woodford Reserve). While ordering dinner… our Server said “oh, good… the Cheesecakes are being delivered”. It was Apple Caramel cheesecake. That got our attention !!! We didn’t know what to expect. We talked a bit with the driver, to find out she was the Owner of Backroads Bakery, in Lexington, KY. We ordered a slice to go home. My picture may not do it justice. Now home….. 3 hours later, we had our dessert and my-o-my… over the top delicious !! It had Apple slices on top as well as at the bottom. Not too many apples, just enough and still taste the luscious cream cheese cake. Wished we lived nearby…we would order more.

Amazing cheesecakes. There is a wide variety to order in advance, and they rotate between seasonal offerings as well. The full cheesecakes are massive and worth getting for a group. The turn around time for ordering these online is also very quick, if you're needing something within the week.

This place is amazing and the owner Ruth so helpful. She went out of her way to answer emails on days the bakery was closed and ensured that my daughter who is a Nurse got her favorite cheesecake for her birthday! Highly recommend.
