Treats by Arvia Gourmet Cheesecakes

About

Treats by Arvia is a gourmet cheesecake bakery on Atlantic Avenue in Raleigh, run by founder and head chef Shenita Arvia Pelham. She grew up in Biscoe, North Carolina, and had a creative passion for baking long before it became a business.

The bakery takes orders for corporate events, birthdays and weddings, and it serves Raleigh, Durham and Biscoe. The cheesecakes have won awards, so the flavors hold up even when one of them starts with a box of cereal. Her middle name is pronounced Arvāy, in case you were wondering.
