Caramel Apple Cheesecake

This cake was baked for a friend of mine, Jay, for her younger sister's, Rin's, 18th birthday. We didn't quite know what she'd (Rin) would like as a cake so Jay decided to give this cheesecake a try since Rin's a huge fan of Caramel.

The Caramel Apple Cheesecake consists of a plain cheesecake sitting on a lemon sponge base and top with fresh apple pie filling. It's then drizzled/top with a generous amount of caramel sauce and more fresh apples!! Let's hope the birthday girl likes the cake! =)

[Happy Birthday Moinks!...the script was not as clear as I wanted it to be on a very rough appley surface!)
