Tres Leches Cake


Tres leches literally means, “three milks”  and tres leches cake is an ultra light sponge cake soaked in a sweet milk mixture. Tres leches cake is a popular cake in Mexico and Latin America.

On July 16th ,its first anniversary of my home and first trial of frosting cake using whipped Cream.

My family favorite cake is Tres Leches, a butter cake soaked in three kinds of milk.This cake is made with three layers: Cake, filling, and topping.
