Backpacker's Pantry Dark Chocolate Cheesecake Mix - Freeze Dried Backpacking & Camping Food - Emergency Food - 13 Grams of Protein, Vegetarian - 1 Count

This is one of my favorite freeze dried meal. It’s spicy, rehydrates well and the pieces are bite sized and perfect for on the go. I’m a travel nurse and I work 24 hours 7 days on and 7 days off. You never know what kind of situation you’ll walk into when you’re going into someone else’s home. I love these because you can eat it right out of the pack and all you need is hot water.

For desserts these were great! I was not expecting these to taste like they were supposed to but they were very delicious. I could eat these all the time. We went on a hiking trip and yes they are very easy to prep, very light, and very tasteful!

I ordered this and the Creme Brule which is delicious and IMO easier to prepare. I made this just now and it took at least a solid minute of brisk stirring in a small glass bowl just to get the powder together and into a batter with still having some on the rim of the bowl. Just a minor annoyance and didn't affect the final result. Came out a thick pudding with a slight cheesy tang, great deep chocolate flavor and a nice silky texture. The cookie crumble was the best part and they absolutely need to double the amount included. looks like the name brand cookies, tasted like them as well. Overall a solid effort and not a bad product but I won't be restocking. I have another one to eat which may change my mind/review. As with the other dessert, the ingredients list is extensive and gave me pause. This one seems even longer.

it was very good will get it again

I'm planning on taking one of these on a weekend hike later this month, so of course I had to buy two so I could try it out before I hit the trail. This is a surprisingly delicious treat. The consistency is basically pudding with crumbled cookies mixed in. I'd say it's a cross between cheesecake and chocolate pudding. It's important to note that it's very rich. It says two servings on the packet for good reason. I ate a whole packet because it was delicious, but I felt like I was oversweetened by the end. It's too much snack for one person. This isn't necessarily a bad thing just plan on saving some or sharing with someone. Overall I'd say this is quite delicious and I know it will be an excellent treat after a day of backpacking.

Not exactly what I was expecting. It's more of a super rich chocolate pudding. Tasted nothing like cheesecake.

surprisingly awesome

I do my fair share of hiking in various environments with all sorts of terrain. One thing that I keep consistent is my last evening meal before my (usually) long hike out is a good one. I often lose weight quickly when hiking and find that by day 4-5, I’m running low on go juice. My plan is usually to have a fairly easy day prior to my final push off trail. I pair that with my heartiest meals of the entire hike.This dessert is how I cap off that day. It’s so good and filling. I can make it after I’ve broken down my stove or even if it’s raining. Once I even ate it as my last breakfast because I knew I had a short but strenuous hike out. I just haven’t found anything I like quite like this.Now it’s basically chocolate pudding mix with some cookie crumbles so don’t go thinking you’ll serve this off trail and impress anyone. Still for a trail dessert … yummy!
