What is Dulce de Leche?
Dulce de leche is a special dessert ingredient that is highly popular across South and Latin America and Spain. It is sometimes also known as “manjar”. Dulce de Leche is produced by condensing down milk and sugar over many many hours. This results in a thick, creamy caramel spread. The creamy, toffee taste is the famous “offee” of Banoffee Pie. In South America is it used as jam might be used in the UK for example as a cake filling, on toast, as an ingredient used with biscuits, cupcakes, rice pudding, and a pancake filling. This will be especially relevant to you if you grew up in South America, this will remind you of home and of your childhood! It also has such an intense flavour that it is perfect for making cheesecakes, mousse, and ice cream.
