I know there are dozens of types of cheesecake. But I have noticed supermarkets seem to all be making the same type of cake. It has a firm white creamcheese texture that is never tart.

What type of cheesecake is normally found in supermarkets?
The ingredients include (heavy) cream

Google search for various grocery store cheesecakes reveals:

Is that what is meant? If so, it appears to be a fairly generic baked New York style cheesecake. Wiki says frozen ones often include sour cream instead of heavy cream, so they'll freeze better.

If it's just based on cream cheese and eggs, it's just a generic cheesecake, for which I don't think there's a name besides simply "cheesecake". (Call it "basic" or "plain" for emphasis if you like.) I believe I've seen plenty of this in stores.

If the ingredients include (heavy) cream, then it's a New York-style cheesecake. It's still a very basic one.
