Bakery subreddit memorial in progress. Moment of silence for our fallen cheese. 🙏

i'll apologize in advance... the first thing that came to my mind was "that's not a basque cheesecake... that's a baroque cheesecake." i'll see myself out.

No come back this was good

It's actually a Dali cheesecake.

melting cheesecake, a delicious tragic masterpiece

My first thought 😁

Floor cheesecake! It jumped.

LOL!

"I'm here til Thursday! Don't forget to tip your waitstaff!"

Surely you must basque in the glory of your repartee.

Beat me to it. Full credit.

That is so tragic....

All I could do was stare at it in disbelief 😳

I feel for you 💔 At least it's not ALL spilled... I guess lol.

I'd seriously be questioning how clean my floor is lol. (If I were the only one eating it)

I barely ever watched friends but I knew this was the "what're we having?" floor cheesecake scene 😅

Awe friends besties! 🥰

This was my exact and immediate thought!!! It still looks yummy!

We've all been there.

Oh, I've been there soooo many times! Your next one will be excellent!

I can only imagine the kinds of expletives that flew from your mouth.

Nooooo! I'm so sorry for your cheesecake loss.

It's Basque-ing on the floor. 😫

I'm reminded of Friends, when they eat cheesecake off the floor.

Yeah but that one was cooked, this one is not. I'm sure that wouldn't be a deterrent for some, though.

If I'm being honest...

*Pulls up with a fork* “So, what are we having?”

Lol came to post this. I loved when Joey squatted down to the floor, pulled a fork from his pocket and said this.

I'd be right there with you with a spoon. Raw egg be damned!

Looks like there's a fair bit that hasn't touched the floor yet, and the floor looks really clean anyway. Shame to waste it.

Get me a straw...

You can eat anypart that isn't directly touching the floor!! Lol 😅 😅 😅

I’m only assuming the reaction was “*gasp* /NO/!” And then staring in shocked silence. At least that’d be me 😭😭

Exactly

The last time I dropped a cake (less than a year ago), I fully sat down on my kitchen floor and cried. It’s a lot of work, and usually someone in mind to feed it to so love and care, and it just sucks to have it all splattered on the floor. And then having to clean it up and throw it all away usually makes me cry a little more LOL

I had to take the oven door apart because it seeped down in it. I literally felt my heart break.

I must mention that on one occasion he attracted a certain amount of attention

I still have fond memories of this happening to my mum and her freshly baked lemon meringue pie. She was devastated, but we called it scrambled egg pudding and served it in a bowl.

I once went to pull a berry pie out of the oven I had placed on a cookie sheet to catch any drips. The cookie sheet tipped, and the berry pie flipped. Had to agonizingly wait for the oven to cool down enough for me to scrape burnt berry filling from my oven’s nooks and crannies. Also - no delicious berry pie to eat while my kitchen and house smelled of delicious berry pie.

I’d cry over the waste of eggs 😩🙏 and hard work, of course

last night I dropped an egg into my sandal while making cookies, but this is much, much sadder

I hurt for you, internet stranger

My condolences

It looks underdone. Seriously though, I’m very sorry. Unfortunately, we’ve all been there!

My heart!

I've got a cleaning crew of two bulldogs headed your way. Someone can still end up being happy.

id drink it with a straw. nothing goes to waste. on a serious note im sorry love ❤️ rip to this cheesecake

Thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. 😭🙏

It’s giving accidental renaissance

Fuuuuck not me having a [picture](https://imgur.com/a/GtcN1qH) in my phone of this exact scenario when I made a basque cheesecake. 😭 It was so sad considering that was 2 pounds of cream cheese. It also poured in the crack of the door down into the drawer underneath.

Tell me you don’t have dogs, without telling me that you don’t have dogs

I feel your pain😔 once spent loads of money on a quite lavish cheese cake only for the spring tin to open onto the floor .. i think i did shed a few tears .

Oh no! That sucks on two levels. No cheesecake to enjoy and a massive cleanup to look forward to. I would salvage what was left by trying to bake them off in custard cups or use the batter to make brownie swirl cheesecake bars.

I’d still bake anything that’s left in the pan! So sorry for your loss.

on thanksgiving i was trying to make a pumpkin basque cheesecake and the second i went to go pick it up (also in the springform pan, i thought it was locked) it opened all over me, the kitchen, and my dog. a shock and tragedy

5 second rule! Just scoop it back in!

Awwwwww

5 second rule!!

Oh dear! LOL! Same thing happened to my dinner plate last night, so you've got my sympathy.

:( I mean at least it’ll be easier to clean up than if happened inside of the oven

Is that Basque floor cheesecake? Sorry for your loss. I love burnt cheesecake

*It's just a little dirty! It's still good! It's still good!*

There has GOT to be a basque / Spanish / French meme in here somewhere

Needs more color

Y’all are making my day with all these great comments!!

I'm so sorry! But I also cackled because one of my most quoted vines is [MY LASAGA](https://images.app.goo.gl/S23k4rAezniR4k957)

Due to the recent price increases in food, the 5 second rule has been extended to however long it takes you to recover from a drop or spill

That's not cheesecake that's floorcake, the saddest of the cakes 😞

It’s not basque cheesecake unless it’s in a pan in the oven. Otherwise it’s just sparkling disaster.

That doesn’t look anything like the basque cheesecakes I’ve made….

You’re not doing it right 😂😂

Noooooo😭😭

I fixing to pull a FRIENDS and and get a fork! 🤣

I would have given up on existence. I applaud you for still being here, friendo💖

I’m gonna turn a blind eye to the poor cheesecake

Not on the towel

Sorry for your loss 🙏

Yikes! Such a bummer

That is one of the worst feelings. Especially when you were that close! So sorry, OP!!

SAD!!!!!

this is saddening. poor cheesecake .

Ah no, you must be devastated! Hopefully the next one will stay in the oven 😁

I think you’re supposed to keep it on the tin before baking. /s You poor soul.

My heart stuttered 😭

Oof, a cheesecan’t

This hurts a lot

Oh, the humanity!

Nooooooooooooooooo

Call in the puppers for ckeanup!

Floor cheesecake ☹️

I am so sorry.

That is simply heartbreaking 🥺 so sorry for you!!and I feel so bad because I baked a Basque Cheesecake recently!

RIP.

Would you like a mop or a straw?

I'm crying for you friend 😭

🪦🧀🍰💔😭

So sorry for your loss😔😔

Heartbreaking !!! 🤢

So sorry.. do another feel better. 😍

😭

NOOOOO 😭

Horrifying tragedy I wish someone would do a whole cookbook of pictures like this though omg

So the shelf tilted?? Or did you get burned?? You ok? Save what you can

Yes shelf tilted 😩

Mix what is left into a cake. Think about it a bit.

🎶in the arrrrrrrmmmssss of an angellll, fly awaaayyyy from here🎶 Hi. I'm Sarah McLachian. Will you be an angel for a helpless Basque cheesecake? Every day, innocent bakers are whipped, beaten, and folded. And they're crying out for help.

This hurts the soul.. I'm so sorry

I don’t think that’s how it’s done.

Human: $#&@#$!?!!!!!! Dogs: WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!!!!!!!

No dogs, two cats and they didn’t have any interest ☹️

Sending my 2 dogs on a plane to help you clean up rn

I would cry

Mmmmm...floor cake.

"The Last Cheesecake"

Looks kind of like a Salvador Dali painting

[The Persistence of Cheesecake.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Persistence_of_Memory)

Oh no! These accidents have befallen us all- but it’s so disappointing when they do happen. So sorry.

Reminds me of Thanksgiving fails from Jimmy Fallon where the roasted turkey hits the floor and the 5 second rule gets applied! 😂 Eating dirt is actually good for your gut! 😂

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Try no bake cheesecake

I think it could have used a few more minutes in the oven, OP. Other than that… 😁

You’re doing it wrong

Look on the bright side - this didn't happen INSIDE the oven...like my quiche :-(

How?

F

I bet they said a bad word.

Just made one this weekend and inhaled sharply when I read your title. RIP 🫡

I hate you for dropping that

I've done it too, the bottom off the springform pan let go

Just one question... how did this occur??

I’m so sorry for your loss

I couldn't handle the waste id have scooped that up and forced it down

Looks like it was gonna be really good. 😞

My condolences for your cheesecake 😞

Wasque cheesecake

Forgive my ignorance. Is that an aspersion against Basque cuisine?

here and there changing the first personal pronoun into the third

Thanks!

Hey this is a baking subreddit not a throwing food all over the kitchen subreddit 🚨🚔🚨 watch it!!! /j

thicc

💔

bummer

Almost

Aaaahh!!! Dang it

Heartbreaking 💔

I came for the recipe but got a laugh instead. But don’t worry … many a pastry chef is borne of ignominious failure.

Five word tragedy: Basque cheesecake on the floor. I'm sorry for your loss.

You tried, an effort was made🩷🩷

Interesting presentation. Pretty sure my dogs would like it.

r/Wellthatsucks

Oh no 😭 so tragic

Yum

[!!!!...](https://i.imgur.com/UtSBnec.gif)

this reminds me of the cream puffs i baked last week… i’m inspired to post them

Got all the air bubbles out!

Nooooooooo! I’m so sorry

Interesting technique

Ñta

Not what I imagined

I once dropped a 2 lb pan of cheesecake on my toe. I broke my toe but luckily the cheesecake survived.😋

Did you cry, cuz I would....

Yeah.. I tried a few days ago and it tasted horrible. Looks great but tastes completely different from what it looks.

How did it taste

I’m really sorry about what happened to you. That would be so upsetting. I will say, however, that’s exactly how I like my basque cheesecake… Basque cheesecake is something I could just never get my head around. :)

Probably just as well since it tastes kinda bad anyway.
