Sweet Hereafter Cheesecake located on Quinpool Rd in Halifax, is Halifaxs source for decadent cheesecake. After using a free website service for many years, it was clear that the tired website did not match the elegance of the restaurant. The client wanted a simple order form that would seamlessly fit into their current process. The site was so much fun to build. I dare you to scroll through the flavours without drooling! #cheesecake #halifax #happiness #desserts #local #gourmet #vegan #bakedhere #quinpool #takeout #heaven #webdevelopment #webdesign #graphicdesign #onlinesales #eastwooddesign
