Pan de yuca, a cheesy cassava bread, is another specialty in places like Ecuador, Colombia and Brazil. This video recipe illustrates the cooking process but you can find the full recipe here. In terms of desserts, Northern Brazil has gifted the world cuscuz, a creamy pudding made with tapioca, milk, coconut and sugar.
Cheese cakes (under refrigeration) should be good for 5 -7 days. Or Frozen for 6-8 months. Anything after that and you are risking various changes such as dryness, spoilage, or even picking up other (unwanted) flavors from your refrigerator. I think Cheesecake is best after 24 hours in the fridge. Put said cake in a Rubbermaid container, place a paper towel over the top and seal the lid over the paper towel. This will collect the condensation from the cake and keep the cake well humidified but not water dripping on it.
I think you're safe. Cheesecake is better at room temperature but best stored cold. Figure it didn't cool completely until about 12 am. At that point it sat for about 6 hours. You can leave cream cheese out for about 6 hours but not much more than that. Give it the ole sniff and taste test. If it's a little sour than don't risk it.
