ABOUT | Mel's Cheesecakes

Hello, my name is Melissa Place and I am the Owner of Mel's Cheesecakes and More, LLC. I am so glad that you have come to find my website. Let me just tell you a little bit about Mel.....

I have been creating custom order cheesecakes and cheesecake cupcakes for birthdays, weddings, baby showers and other special occasions for over ten years. Before that.....

I attended college for Business Administration and worked in the Business World most of my career. The thought of having my own bakery had been nothing more than a dream for the better part of a decade.

That dream became a reality in August of 2024, when I formed my LLC in Johnston County, North Carolina, purchased a concession trailer and found a regular place in Benson, North Carolina to set up. 501 S. Wall Street, Benson, has been "home" several days a week for my food trailer. I can also be found in Four Oaks on occassion and at other Benson area events.

I look forward to continued growth of my business. Please be on the lookout for my big yellow food trailer. You can also check the WHERE is MEL Today tab to see where I plan to be. I am still taking custom orders as well. Please contact me today to place your order by clicking here
