about
We’re a proud family-owned business based in Wichita, Kansas, and we can’t wait to share our sweet journey with you!
Our love for cheesecake runs deep in our family. Jack Feist was inspired by his father’s memories of growing up in Long Island and his own childhood nostalgia. In 2020, he began experimenting in his kitchen, determined to recreate the iconic flavors of a beloved New York cheesecake company from his past. Adding to the challenge, one of Jack’s daughters was diagnosed with Celiac disease, so he made it his mission to craft a cheesecake she could safely enjoy. After countless batches and adjustments, Jack perfected a gluten-free cheesecake that captured the essence of his childhood memories while being Celiac-safe and, most importantly, delicious.
What began as a personal project blossomed into a passion for creating desserts that everyone can enjoy. In the same year, we ventured into the local food scene, selling cheesecakes to individual customers and eventually partnering with local restaurants. Our business grew quickly, leading to the creation of XO Desserts, where we expanded our menu to include a delightful array of sweets—all made with the finest ingredients. Our talented head baker, Katelyn, brings her creativity and passion to every dessert, ensuring each bite is filled with joy and flavor.
At XO Desserts, you’ll find our signature gluten-free cheesecakes, tasty cannolis, and rich, house-made ice cream.
We’re thrilled to have you join us on this sweet adventure, and we look forward to delighting your taste buds with our ever-growing selection of indulgent, gluten-free treats. Thank you for being part of the XO Desserts family, where we have a dessert for everyone!
