These were left in the oven, overnight, more like almost 72 hours. Saturday afternoon until now. (Sun/Mon are my off days every week)
No one uses these ovens so no one checked them. A pastry cook clearly forgot about them and the ovens have been on low. They don’t smell like burning products so no one noticed, until the other pastry cook went looking for cheesecakes.
I’m dumbfounded, I’ve seen people leave things in ovens over night before, but for 3 nights?????

And whoever it was didn’t have an ‘oh shit’ moment and call someone?
Depends. Was the intention to produce charcoal for the grill?
That the new more basque basque cheesecake?
How fucked are those spring form pans?
Doesn’t the staff turn off everything before they leave? I’ve worked in California and Florida, very different atmospheres for kitchens but both coasts have to turn off everything at the end of the day. How has no one noticed this for three days??? Lmao
That is a really bad mistake, which you would have thought the person who made the cheesecakes would have noticed after a day or 2, like oh shit the fuking cheesecakes!! I would say action to be taken by your management about the situation that occurred, so it can get dealt with properly so mistakes like this don’t happen after, don’t forgot about the loss of ingredients and energy costs, if that happened in my place, my owner would go nuts, things like this should rarely happen, and surely you have to check the ovens are off before you go, simple stuff really.
Hahahaha I thought these were chocolate cheesecakes
I imagine the texture to be something like astronaut ice cream and the taste to be something like ash pit.
I think it used to be fashionable to eat it almost raw, but it seems the trend has changed a bit, and now they’re long-baked. They have an innovative pastry team! Great work!
Honestly, I’d try it
Basque Cheesecake dessert special
Just scratch it with the knife a bit and they’ll be ok👌
Yeesh, that is unfortunate. And makes me think of the biggest fuck up I ever encountered as a kitchen employee.
Once upon a time, I was a night-shift janitor & a day-shift prep cook. Showed up to the kitchen for cleaning shift around 1am to an absolute wall of gas when I opened the door. Called the gas company to send a tech out.
Turned out a closing cook had left all the stove burners wide open with no flames, so gas was absolutely puking out from around 10pm to 1am. That cook was either a compete idiot or a saboteur. He claimed he thought he turned the dials off. Either way, he got canned. And I didn’t die! Big wins all around.
This is a formal request for a video of one of these either being banged against a counter or dramatically thrown against a wall
Damn they’ve cracked, truly unsalvageable now
Oh, the giant shoe polish tins I ordered came in

So, you made charcoal…
Solid closing procedures in full effect. Check the safe, it’s probably unlocked
It’s like the graphite from Chernobyl
More like cheesecain’t.
My first time closing a frozen yogurt place without training at 18 and I shut off every machine. Thousands of dollars in yogurt turned from temp soup by morning. I resigned. Ice cream since that day.
I recently ruined a whole batch of cheesecake by aerating my cream cheese and made a mousse instead. But at least I was able to feed it to my staff. This was probably a very sad walk to the trash can.
Goddamn, that’s like 10 lbs of cream cheese wasted.
NOOOO THOSE CHEESCAKES
A colleague of mine once burned the holy crap out of a porterhouse one night. He saved it for accounting purposes, but when I saw it the next morning, I was compelled to be a wise-ass. So, I stuck a toothpick in it with a white flag that said “help!” in tiny letters. Gotta have fun with it, right?
At first I thought I was looking at cracked piston heads in a split engine block
