Dear Aunty
I will like to try out this cake. Do I need to use water bath method? I am using 8 inch spring form, do I have to cut down the ingredients?
Thanks,
Janice
Hi Janice,
Yes you need water bath for this cheesecake.
for 8" - use 3/4 of the recipe.

Hi yochana auntie:)
Just wondering what Bain Marie means. One of the comments said that it meant water bath. Does that mean that we have to bake it in a water bath like put the cake in a pan of water and stick it in the oven? Or do i just bake it normally?
Btw, your site looks awesome:D
Please reply! :D
Love,
