Adam Matthews was founded in 1983 by Adam Matthew Burckle. Growing up in Louisville, Kentucky on special occasions Adam would look forward to and enjoy the hard work of his Mother Nell when she would bake her famous New York style cheesecake. While attending culinary school, Adam missed the flavor and richness of her cakes, so he started baking them at school. The demand from culinary classmates was so large that it caused Adam to consider pursuing his talents in a bakery rather than a restaurant. 

In 1983 he opened Adam Matthews with one oven and a baker’s helper. Soon sales took off and since then Adam Matthews has never looked back. Since 1983 Adam Matthews has baked over 10 million cheesecakes alone. 

Adam Matthews cheesecakes can be found throughout the United States. Adam Matthews cakes are sold in bakeries as well frozen food sections of grocery stores, specialty retailers and restaurants throughout the United States.
