A popular Cheshire cheesecake shop is set to open in Crewe this month - on the same street its business owner lived on for six years.

Rainbow Cheesecakes & Sweet Treats will be opening on Bramhall Road this November - with a target opening date of Saturday (November 12).

Currently operating at Sandbach Market Hall, the dessert shop sells cheesecakes, blondies, brownies, millionaires shortbread, old-school sponge, pick and mix and fudge.

Rainbow Cheesecakes is owned and managed by Jenni Grist from Crewe (Jenni Grist).

"I've lived in Crewe forever and previously on Bramhall Road for six years. This premises was advertised and I thought wouldn't it would be funny to work on the same street," says business owner Jenni Grist.

Miss Grist started her dessert business in lockdown and baked cheesecakes - first giving them to neighbours.

The cheesecakes quickly became popular among Miss Grist's family and friends - all encouraging her to turn it into a business.

Miss Grist told Nub News: "I had a second child on the way and didn't really have the time or the money but I carried on regardless.

"My partner bought a business unit and there was spare room. I said we could make this into a kitchen and we got it all set up in lockdown.

"I got my Facebook page built and started a delivery service in April 2021."

Two months later, the Crewe mum-of-two got a display fridge and starting taking her cheesecakes to local craft fairs.

They were a massive hit - sometimes selling out before the stall was even fully set-up.

Miss Grist said: "Every weekend we went to different places such as Haslington and Alsager. We often sold out in 20 minutes.

"We did the fairs for a few months then in September a friend got me a stall at Sandbach Market Hall.

"After being so popular, I got asked to do two days a week - which quickly went to a full Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

This March, Miss Grist applied for a permanent unit at Sandbach Market Hall and a new shop in Crewe.

Miss Grist added: "A lot of my friends are from Crewe. As time has gone on I have got more and more excited about opening here.

"The cheesecake shop will be a takeout service - but will have a table and chairs inside for those wanting a chat.

"We are also looking to get a Tango Ice Blast machine inside the shop."
