One thing is clear, Detroiters love the cheesecakes that this entrepreneur creates.

The For the Love of Cheesecake team recently announced her new location is coming to Midtown at 4240 Cass Avenue. This will again serve specialty cakes, as well as coffees and other desserts. Hamilton said she does not yet have an opening date as construction is developing.

What Now Detroit previously covered Hamilton opening a brick-and-mortar location late last year at 18685 Livernois in the Bagley area. It already became popular as a pop-up, and has now served over 100,000 cakes in the area. Many stopping in can expect the same signature items, like fruit topping cheesecakes and specialty themed cakes like Oreo and banana pudding.

“We create every treat to order, just the way you like it,” says the description on their website.

The storefront is on the east side of Cass Avenue, sharing the building with Simply Roasted, Source Booksellers and The Mushroom Hub Detroit. This is in the center of Midtown, and not far from Wayne State University. The Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit is also close-by.
