Mandarins are a nice, sweet fruit perfect for a light dessert like a cheesecake. That's why we decided to create this delicious cake that's whipped with extra virgin olive oil from Spain for a lighter cheese filling and a sturdier graham cracker crust. Mandarin pairs nicely with the subtle flavors of EVOO from Spain, and we encourage you to try it for yourself!
