From the Chamber
The Great Bend Chamber of Commerce celebrated a sweet milestone on Thursday, Jan. 29 with a Chamber Coffee and Ribbon Cutting for Freaking Delicious Cheesecake Company at its new location inside Fuller Industries, 15 SW 40 Ave in Great Bend.
The celebration was held just ahead of the company’s three-year anniversary, as owner Allie Cartwright entered an exciting new chapter that provides the space needed to meet growing demand and expand wholesale production across Central Kansas.
Freaking Delicious Cheesecake Company now operates out of Fuller Industries’ commercial kitchen, a move made possible thanks to a connection facilitated by Great Bend Chamber President and CEO, Megan Barfield. While attending a Chamber Coffee at Fuller, Barfield toured the kitchen space and saw an opportunity, bringing the two organizations together in what has proven to be a natural fit.
The expanded space allows Cartwright to increase production capacity while positioning the business for continued growth. In October of 2025, Freaking Delicious Cheesecake Company was awarded 1st Place in the Great Bend Economic Development Center’s IGNITE Competition, earning $50,000 to invest back into the business. The award further strengthened plans for expansion and long-term sustainability.
Freaking Delicious Cheesecake Company serves handcrafted cheesecakes and cheesecake treats in a wide variety of flavors and sizes. In addition to retail sales at the new location, the business continues to travel throughout Central Kansas with its concession trailer and provides wholesale products to area restaurants and retailers.
Walk-in hours at the new location are: Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., Friday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Customers may also order online 24/7 at www.FreakingDeliciousCheesecake.com or call/text 620-303-0350.
