Which Cheesecake to Order at The Cheesecake Factory

Last updated: · Prices and calories re-verified against the official menu and the official Summer 2026 nutrition guide

The Cheesecake Factory menu lists 35 cheesecakes, and a slice costs $9.95 to $13.95 with 570 to 1,580 calories, so picking one comes down to flavour, not price. This guide groups all 35 by flavour, shows the verified slice price and calories for each, and ends with a straight pick for the most common tastes. Every number below comes from the official menu and the official Summer 2026 nutrition guide, and the slice prices are verified ranges from official location menus.

If you already know you want the plain slice, start with Original. If you want help choosing, the flavour map below is the fastest way through the list.

The flavour map: 35 slices in four families

Original Cheesecake slice at The Cheesecake Factory

Every slice on the menu falls into one of four flavour families. Chocolate holds the richest slices, fruit holds the brightest ones, classic covers the plain and caramel slices, and light holds the two lowest-calorie slices on the menu. Calories are per slice from the official Summer 2026 nutrition guide. Slice prices are the verified ranges where we have them; the rest vary by location, so check the ordering menu at your restaurant.

Two things stand out in that table. First, the lightest slice and the richest slice sit almost 1,000 calories apart, so the family you pick matters more than the exact flavour inside it. Second, Hershey’s Chocolate Bar is the only slice with no calorie figure in the Summer 2026 guide, so we list it as not in the guide rather than guessing a number.

What a slice actually costs

Across the 11 slices with a verified price range, a slice costs $9.95 to $13.95. Original is the cheapest verified slice at $9.95 to $11.50, and Fresh Strawberry is the priciest at $12.50 to $13.95. The other 24 slices have no verified range published here, because their prices come from the same location menus and move the same way, so the $9.95 to $13.95 span is the honest frame for the whole list.

That span is narrow on purpose. No slice on the menu is a bargain and none is a splurge next to the rest; the difference between the cheapest and the priciest verified slice is $4.00 at the top end. If price is the deciding factor, Original saves the most, and if it is not, the flavour family above is the better place to choose from.

Whole cakes: sizes, and the price the brand does not publish

Whole cheesecakes come in three sizes on the official menu: 6-inch, 7-inch, and 10-inch. The 10-inch list is the widest, with most flavours available, while the 6-inch and 7-inch lists cover a smaller set led by Original, Fresh Strawberry, and Chocolate Mousse. A 10-inch Original lists 700 calories per serving on the official site, which is a serving of the whole cake rather than the 830-calorie restaurant slice.

The brand does not publish whole-cake prices on the menu page, and the location menus we checked list slice prices only. That is why this guide gives no whole-cake price. If you are buying for a group, the price appears at ordering for your location, so check it there rather than trusting a number from a third-party list.

If you like this, try that

Start with the plain slice if you have never had one. Original is 830 calories at $9.95 to $11.50, and it is the base the rest of the menu builds on, so it tells you what the cheesecake itself tastes like before any layers get in the way.

For the richest chocolate slice, Oreo Dream Extreme and Reese’s Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake tie at 1,510 calories, both at $11.95 to $13.50. Oreo leans on cookies and chocolate icing, Reese’s leans on peanut butter and chocolate cake, so pick by which of those two you like more.

For the fewest calories, Low-Licious is 570 per slice, and the strawberry version is 580. Both are the only slices under 600 calories on the menu, and both are listed in the guide’s gluten-free desserts.

For fruit without the richest number, Fresh Strawberry is 1,000 calories at $12.50 to $13.95, and Lemon Raspberry Cream is 1,040. Fresh Strawberry costs more per slice than Lemon Raspberry Cream, so the cheaper fruit pick is the lemon one when price matters.

For the richest slice on the menu, Ultimate Red Velvet Cake is 1,580 calories at $11.95 to $13.50. It is the only slice above 1,550, so if you want the heaviest dessert on the list, that is the one.

For caramel, Salted Caramel is 1,240 calories and Dulce De Leche Caramel is 1,390 at $10.95 to $12.50. Salted Caramel is the lighter of the two by 150 calories, and Dulce is the one with a verified slice price.
