No-bake summer fruits cheesecake is the perfect summer dessert. This delicious cheesecake is easy to make and is topped with your favourite summer berries!
Well folks, summer is officially just around the corner.
So what better way to celebrate that and all the tasty fruits it brings, than with this no-bake summer fruits cheesecake?
This berry cheesecake requires no baking.
Indeed it's set in the freezer and is perfect to finish off a BBQ or summer drinks party!
This summer fruits cheesecake is simple to make.
You won't have to worry about your cheesecake setting in the fridge because it will definitely set in the freezer!
Also, because this cheesecake sets in the freezer you can use "lighter" less calorific condensed milk, cream cheese and double cream.
Often I find that if you use those lighter products in a normal no-bake cheesecake, which sets in the fridge, the cheesecake takes an age to set or sometimes not set at all! Which results in a collapsing disappointing cheesecake mess!
Make sure you remove your cheesecake from the freezer at least 5 minutes prior to serving.
You want to give the cheesecake a little time at room temperature which will make it easier to push the base up slowly keeping the shape of the cheesecake without completely defrosting it.
It's literally only going to take you a few seconds to decorate it too.
Just pile on your choice of mixed summer berries. Then slice it up and enjoy!
Happy summer!

Equipment
Ingredients
- 75 g unsalted butter
- 125 g digestive biscuits*
- 300 g mixed fresh berries blueberries, raspberries, strawberries
- 405 g can light condensed milk
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 200 g light soft cheese
- 300 ml light double cream
Instructions
- Grease the bottom and sides of a 20cm loose bottomed cake tin. Place a circle of greaseproof / parchment paper in the bottom.
- Blitz the digestive biscuits to a crunchy crumb consistency either in a food processor or place in a bag and bash with a rolling pin.
- Melt the butter in a medium sized saucepan, then stir in the crushed biscuits.
- Press the biscuits into the bottom of the greased cake tin, ensuring all the bottom is covered evenly, then place into the fridge for a minimum of 20 minutes.
- Mash 100g of mixed berries with a fork.
- In a bowl whisk the condensed milk to slightly soften it and then gradually whisk in the lemon juice. Then fold in the cream cheese and mashed berries.
- In a separate bowl whip the cream by hand or use a processor until it just begins to go stiff. Then fold the cream into the lemon cream cheese mixture and pour the whole mixture over the biscuit base.
- Place the cheesecake into the freezer to freeze for at least 4 hours. You could also make this the day before and chill overnight in the fridge then put into the freezer for 1 – 2 hours until frozen.
- Before serving, remove cheesecake from freezer and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Then remove the cheesecake from the tin and pile on the remaining mixed berries.
Notes
*Folks in the U.S. use graham crackers.

This sounds like an awesome summer dessert, Neil! We've been loading up on all of the fresh summer berries lately. Most of them are getting eaten straight away, but we did make some smoothies the other day - delicious. Now I want to make this no-bake cheesecake! I can totally imagine sitting on the back deck watching the sun go down and eating a slice of this cheesecake. Yum!!
Neil
I'm with you here David. I've been making smoothies too and we've been enjoying some amazing fresh summer berries grown here in Scotland recently. Hence the inspiration for this cheesecake. It's perfect for enjoying on your back deck!

This is such a fantastic summer treat! I am putting this on the to make list to try out- only I might have to wait to make this when I can finally have friends over for a meal and dessert as I don’t trust myself around this deliciousness!

Similarly just as hot here Ron but looks like thunderstorms today. But still a perfect time to stay cool with the summer dessert! Thanks and happy summer to you over there too! 🙂
