Because you don't have to bake it, you can make it without an oven. The base of rare cheesecake can be digestive biscuits or sponge cake. For me I think using digestive biscuit crumbs give interesting texture to the cake and it's easier too ^^.
This time to intensify the taste of the blueberry I add blueberry fruit spread into the base of the cake but you can use blueberry jam too if you like.
Mitte blueberry flavoured syrup give enough blueberry flavour to the cake, but if you want using food colouring make the cake prettier and more blueberry colour, hehe.
Serve this cute little cake with a cup of hot black tea is recommended as the richness of the cake goes well with lightly bitterness of the black tea.
