I was going to make some cheesecakes so that I can cut in squares and dip in chocolate for treats. My question is ... can you freeze cheesecake ahead of time?? Looks like my Halloween orders are filling up and this sure would be a time saver. I know you can buy frozen cheesecakes at Sams.... any reason why I couldn't do the same thing?? I am wanting to make Hazelnut, white chocolate and pumpkin cheesecake squares dipped in milk chocolate on a stick.....
I will only say that you can freeze them if you send me some! 
Those sound so YUMMY! I am a sucker for cheesecake.
So, to answer your question... I have never personally frozen cheesecake, but I would pretty well bet that as long as it is wrapped properly to keep out ice crystals/condensation you should be fine. Those actually sound like a really good idea-- mind if I borrow it?!
Do you make the traditional round cheesecake, thickness and all? I thought maybe I could make it in my large rectangular pan and not make them quite as thick. Also, I don't know what you use for your crust, but when I make my pumpkin white-chocolate cheesecake I use ginger snaps for the crust and it is amazingly good! My mouth is watering thinking about it.
One of my favorite ways to make cheesecake pops is to bake a crustless cheesecake. I then use a small scoop to scoop out balls of the cheesecake, insert the stick and freeze. Then I dip them or roll them into whatever toppings I like (like crumbled graham cracker "crust" for example).
But, you can definitely make your cheesecakes ahead and freeze, then cut. Use a hot knife and you can cut them very easily while frozen.
I work at a bakery, and after Easter my boss put his 10" New York Style Cheesecakes with fresh berries on sale for $15!!!! so I bought one and froze it for a MONTH for my brother's birthday. it was in a white bakery box, and all i did was just stick it in the freezer. and it was just fine! the fruit looked a little shriveled, but everything tasted great! HTH

I know this might be a silly question, but how do you make a crustless cheesecake? I would really like to try this cheesecake-on-a-stick thing out!

Oh Wow 
! I have got to try this 
!! Death by cheesecake...but what a way to go!!!
There are SO many interesting combinations of cheesecake. Adding liqueurs, candies. Using cookies for crusts. We have made SO many varieties for a bistro in downtown Orlando. With the fall season approaching, break out the pumpkin!!!!
