This cheesecake was amazing! The crust was perfect and the filling was creamy and smooth. The passionfruit flavor was just right, not too tart and not too sweet. I will definitely be making this again.

This cheesecake was a bit too tart for my taste, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference. The crust was also a bit too crumbly for my liking. Overall, it was an okay cheesecake, but I wouldn't make it again.
