Dulce de Leche

Dulce de leche is a sweet, creamy caramel-like spread made by slowly heating sweetened milk until it thickens and develops a rich, golden-brown color. This process causes the milk’s natural sugars to caramelize, creating a smooth, luscious texture and deep flavor. Commonly used in desserts, pastries, and confections, it has a sweet and slightly caramelized taste that enhances various dishes. Originating in Latin America, dulce de leche is enjoyed worldwide and can be made at home or purchased pre-made in jars.
