A tres leches cake (lit. 'three milks cake'; Spanish: pastel de tres leches, torta de tres leches or bizcocho de tres leches), also known as pan tres leches (lit. 'three milks bread'), is a sponge cake—in some recipes, a butter cake—soaked in three kinds of milk: evaporated milk, condensed milk, and heavy cream.

When butter is not used, tres leches is a very light cake, with many air bubbles. This distinct texture is why it does not have a soggy consistency, despite being soaked in a mixture of three types of milk.

Popularity and origins

Tres leches cake is a uniquely traditional Latin American cake.

Recipes for soaked-cake desserts were seen in Mexico as early as the 19th century, likely a result of the large cross-cultural transfer which took place between Europe and the Americas.[1] Nicaragua is one of the countries where tres leches cake has become popular.[2] Recipes appeared on Nestlé condensed milk can labels in the 1940s, which may explain the cake's widely disseminated popularity throughout Latin America as the company had created subsidiaries in Argentina, Chile, Cuba, Colombia, Mexico, and Venezuela in the 1930s.[3] The cake is popular in Central and South America, North America, and many parts of the Caribbean, Canary Islands, as well as in Albania, North Macedonia, and some other parts of Europe.[4]

2015년경 발칸과 터키에서 트라이레시/트리레치라고 알려진 다양한 트레스레치가 인기를 끌게 되었다. 한 가지 이론은 알바니아에서 브라질 연속극이 인기를 끌면서 현지 요리사들이 디저트를 역설계하게 되었고, 이것이 터키로 확산되었다는 것이다.[5][6] 알바니아어 버전은 때때로 소, 염소, 물소의 세 가지 밀크로 만들어지지만, 더 일반적으로 소의 우유와 크림의 혼합물이 사용된다.[5]
