Hide AdLeila Dangerfield of The Cheesecake Lady said: “We needed to change the name because we needed something to be a joint effort.
"When we opened up The Cheesecake Lady people were queueing up for it, so people’s response to something new is what we’re most grateful for.
“We’re going to try and bring something no-one else does at a reasonable price."
Those who have become accustomed to the cheesecakes and desserts from the former business need not panic, as The Deli will still serve sweet treats as well as savoury goods. It will also be serving the expected hot and cold refreshments, giving local people the chance to take away, or eat in, at the new shop in Eaton Walk.

When the unit became available they jumped at the chance, as they believe it to be an up-and-coming area, already seeing In Bloom florist and Revival hair salon moving in.
Inside the premises there is decor relating to Rushden’s history, with the new owners hoping to harness the feeling of locality.
