Question 1

How Long Should I Refrigerate this Strawberry Cheesecake Icebox Cake?

Accepted Answer

Most icebox cakes (and cake jars) taste best when they are refrigerated for more than 24 hours, and sometimes, they taste even better after 2 days in the fridge.

However, you can also dig into them after they’ve had 24 hours of refrigeration. This basically helps make the cake easily sliceable and ensures that your creation retains its shape while you’re actually serving it.

Question 2

Can I Pick Another Fruit?

Accepted Answer

Of course you can!

You don’t necessarily have to stick to strawberries- though the combination of strawberries and cheesecake works wonderfully together. Other berries like raspberries and blueberries and tropical fruits like mangoes are also great for this kind of dessert.

Question 3

I Don’t Have Vanilla Wafers. What Else Can I Use Instead?

Accepted Answer

With icebox cakes, there are dozens of options for you to pick from. Vanilla wafers might be on the list of ingredients, but if you don’t have those handy, you don’t necessarily need to rush out to get your hands on them.

You can also use graham crackers or any other vanilla or strawberry-flavored cookies instead. And that’s, of course, because you’re following the strawberry cheesecake flavor note.

If you’re not too hesitant about getting some chocolate in the mix too, you could also use Oreos or chocolate chip cookies instead of the vanilla wafers, and the strawberry cheesecake icebox cake will still turn out perfectly fine and delicious.
